The Flying Scot Class will be sailing for three different perpetual trophies as part of Southern Yacht Club's annual Juby Wynne Memorial Regatta: The Commissioner General Trophy, the Charles L Dees Memorial Trophy, and, the Cock-of-the-Walk Trophy.  Each has its own individual criteria.

The Commissioner General Trophy is presented to the overall winner of the Flying Scot Class.  The boat and crew must comply with general pertinent Flying Scot Sailing Association (FSSA) rules, and a currently Active, Life, Junior, Club or Family Member must be on board, but not necessarily be the helmsman.  Associate members who are also Family or Junior members are also eligible to fulfill this requirement (see Article B-VII).

The Charles L. Dees Memorial Trophy is presented to the winner of the FSSA Gulf District Championship.  The boat and crew must comply with FSSA sanctioned event rules.  The skipper must be a paid member of the FSSA and be a member of a fleet in the Gulf District.

The Cock-of-the-Walk Trophy is presented to the winner of the Gulf Yachting Association (GYA) Flying Scot Championship.  Entrants (skippers only) shall be a member of a GYA Club.  There is no limit to the number of entries per club.  The same crew shall sail all series races.  The minimum crew weight shall be 390 pounds live weight.  Boats, sails and equipment may be either club owned or privately owned. (See GYA Reg 45).

Everyone races together and scored for the total FS fleet.  Whoever meets the criteria of the sub-fleets, i.e. Districts and/or Cock-of-the-Walk (COW), first will be awarded those trophies.
