Fresh from a convincing class win at the US IRC National Championships at Block Island Race Week, George Shaw and his crew aboard J/122 ‘Tumbleweed’ finished their first offshore distance race with a second place in IRC 2 (the largest class of the event) finishing behind only the larger Swan 56 on corrected time. Third in class was Lawrence Glenn’s J/44 Runaway. The biennial
Marblehead-to-Halifax Ocean Race is one of the pre-eminent ocean races of the
North Atlantic and has a long and prestigious history. Congratulations to the Tumbleweed crew!
