(Rye, New York)- The J/88 USA Class President, Iris Vogel (owner of DEVIATION), provided a highlight of J/88 class activity in the USA for 2017 and an overview of what will be happening in 2018.Iris commented, “2017 has been an amazing year for the J/88 class. We had more than ten one-design events in Long Island Sound and all over the country. Here is the list of each event and number of boats in attendance:
- Key West Race Week- Key West, FL- seven boats
- Charleston Race Week- Charleston, SC- five boats
- American YC Spring Series- Rye, NY- seven boats
- Larchmont YC Edlu Distance Race- Larchmont, NY- five boats
- Cedar Point One Design Regatta- Cedar Point, CT- nine boats
- East Coast Championship/ Block Island Race Week- Block Island, RI- seven boats
- J/88 North American Championship- Youngstown, NY- twelve boats
- YRA LIS Championships- Riverside, CT- five boats
- Storm Trysail Club Vineyard Race- Stamford, CT- four boats
- Storm Trysail Club Championships- Riverside, CT- seven boats
- American YC Fall Series- Rye, NY- nine boats
There is still time to enter the J/Fest in St. Petersburg, FL on Jan 19-21; St Pete NOOD on February 16-18; and Charleston Race Week April 12-15. The DEVIATION crew is also doing the J-Cup in Cowes, England on May 25-27; we expect that should be great fun!!
The great thing about a J/88 is the travel regattas that you can attend, the boat is incredibly easy to rig up/ take down, trailer anywhere, and launch using most yacht club 3-ton cranes. So, if you need help with boat deliveries or logistics, contact me and I will make it happen!
Wishing you and your families all the best for the Holidays and New Year!” Cheers, Iris Vogel
