(Dillon, CO)- The "Two-Mile High" J/24 Nationals took place this past weekend in Dillon, Colorado. Answering the call to race in true "nose-bleed" mountain high territory were an amazing range of thirty-six J/24 teams from across America. World, North American, National and Regional Champions in the J/24 class made the migration to the Rockies for some fun and frolic. Over the course of the regatta, the conditions ran the full gamut from sun and 80 degrees to hail and 55 degrees, not atypical of the sailing experience on Dillon-- where "pop-up thunderstorms" materialize in hours, go around the mountains one way and come back at our in a curve-ball on the other side of the range!!
Eight races were completed, but John Mollicone only needed the first seven of them, building a 21-point lead to lock up the title. Pat Toole's 3 BIG DOGS team from Santa Barbara, CA were second with Chris Snow's BOGUS from San Diego, CA in third. For more J/24 Nationals sailing information
