The Twilight Series is easily our most popular series with 30+ yachts participating. Run on Friday evenings with the first yacht starting at 6pm, these non-spinnaker races are fun, social and suitable to all levels of experience. The series runs from October to March; easily one of the best ways to relax at the end of the week and perfect for beginner sailors.
In addition, female helm are invited to participate in the Twilight Female Helm Series which is held in conjunction with the main Twilight Series.
Post race presentations are held on the MYC balcony after racing where you can enjoy a meal and something to drink with your crew and family members and guests. We aim to cater for non-vegetarians and vegetarians alike, at an affordable price. The bar sells wine, beer, cider and some mixed drinks along with non alcoholic beverages.
To reserve your table, please use the Twilight Dinner Table Booking Form.

John’s objective of merging together his own vineyards with a high quality boutique winery in 2002 was to offer a diverse range of grape varieties and products which would guarantee quality maintained on yearly basis.
