J/22 Charleston Charter Deal!

J/22 sailor Greg Fisher at College of Charleston (Charleston, SC)- Hear ye!  Hear ye! Here’s a super charter deal for brand new J/22s for those interested in going down to Charleston Race Week and simply messing about in boats at one of the world’s largest one-design keelboat regattas.

If you are not in the mood to trail your own boat and you would rather fly, or want to sail a brand new J/22, have we got a deal for you!

This past fall, the College of Charleston bought 10 brand new J/22s. They are race-ready and rigged, at minimum weight and have lead in them, clean faired bottoms and new race sails. The sails are the same designs that won the last J/22 Worlds in Newport, RI, just built from a heavier cloth. Since there is always breeze in Charleston, they will be plenty fast. These boats are offered for four days for a charter fee of $1,100 with sails and $900 without if you bring your own. If you do not have your own borrowed boat insurance, we can help you set that up at a minimal cost of $75. Free docking, maintenance and again all the full race gear is available. Finally, past J/22 World Champion, Greg Fisher, will be offering an on-the-water coaching and tuning clinic for J/22 charter sailors on Thursday afternoon. The boats will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

If this idea sounds appealing to you, please be sure to contact Greg Fisher, Sailing Director at College of Charleston Sailing- Cell# 410-212-4916, Office# 843-953-8252 or email- greg@gregfishersailing.com.
