J's Dominate Waukegan Race!
(Chicago, IL- June 26-27)- A large turn-out of boats for this perennial classic that takes the fleet for a sprint up the Illinois lakefront from Chicago up to Waukegan and return- a distance of about 50 miles. The J contingent had a very strong showing overall winning every big boat section. And, the J/105 class had a strong turnout of nine boats for what is almost always a fun, reaching race.
First in Section 1 was the J/133 RENEGADE. First in Section 2 was the J/120 JAHAZI. First and second in Section 3 were the two J/109s CERTAINLY and NORTHSTAR, respectively. In the J/105s, STRIKING won...the same boat that will be competing in the Double-handed Chicago-Mackinac Race coming up shortly.
