J/109 Wins Boat of the Year

J/109 sailing in North Carolina offshore series(Raleigh, NC)- Tinka Albert from Raleigh reports the exciting news that the J/109 AFTER THOUGHT, owned and sailed by Craig and Suzy Wright of Raleigh, NC, won the North Carolina Offshore Boat of the Year Award in the Spinnaker Division.  The BOTY Spinnaker division award is calculated on a boat’s finishing positions in six area regattas plus their overall result in the annual Winter Series.  It is AFTER THOUGHT's second BOTY win, they also won in 2007.  It's quite an achievement and saw them perform well in a wide variety of conditions, particularly offshore in some demanding weather, proving again the strength of the J/109 to be a solid, all-around racer-cruiser for family teams!  For more J/109 sailboat information.
