GOOD TRADE Smokes J/105!(New Bedford, MA)- The 45th edition of the late summer classic known as the Buzzards Bay Regatta was an exciting event for the J/105 class as well as the big boat PHRF classes.
Perhaps Nicole Breault’s J/105 GOOD TRADE put up the most stunning performance of the regatta. Virtually leading at every single mark in every race, she posted ten 1sts and had to toss out a 1st for 9 pts net! Ouch! That is a spanking of the J/105 fleet. Second with nearly all 2nds and 3rds, was Mark Lindquist’s STERLING. Then, taking third place was Matt & Lisa Schmitt’s HARDTACK.
In the PHRF Spinnaker division, 7 of 10 boats are all J/crews!! Winning the PHRF 1 Class was Doug Curtiss’ J/111 WICKED 2.0, followed by Mark Verville’s J/120 ISURUS in second, Ted Herlihy’s J/109 GUT FEELING in 3rd, Cory Eaves’ J/109 FREEDOM in 4th and Dan Boyd’s J/109 WILD THING in 5th place.
PHRF 2 class saw Ira Perry’s J/29 SEEFEST continue their great performances offshore, taking the silver in their class. They were followed by Tom Sutton’s long-distance traveling J/35 LEADING EDGE- winner of last year’s New York YC Annual Regatta.
The PHRF Non-Spinnaker class had Ken van Colen’s J/30 MOODY BLUE taking a third in class. For more Buzzards Bay Regatta sailing informationAdd to Flipboard Magazine.
