Johnstone Wins Hospice Nationals

21 crews, all winners of qualifying Hospice Regattas throughout the USA during 2005, sailed in one-design J/105s, May 12-14 in Annapolis MD to contest the Hospice National Championship. The racing, conducted by the Storm Trysail Club, comprised 8 races with no throwouts, with each team sailing a different boat drawn by lots each day. The competing teams only had to bring 4-5 crew members. The local owner of the boat sailed as a member of the crew, could provide local knowledge and perform crew duties other than steering or trimming sails. Full Report & Results Here.
