J/97 Race Results Update

The J/97 JENGA had a remarkably successful debut racing season in UK waters this year.  Congratulations are in order to Paul and Marie-Claude Heys for their wonderful performances over a broad spectrum of weather conditions that are typical in the summer sailing season in England.  As a demonstration of its remarkable diversity, the J/97 won in drifting conditions with nary a ripple in sight to gale force, blowing dogs off chains, conditions with huge breaking waves.  Here was JENGA's record for 2009:

• 2nd in class and 27 overall out of 1779 starters, at the JPMorgan Round the Island Race
• Winner of Black Group Overall at Cowes Week – 6 race wins
• Overall Winner of Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta – 6 race wins
• Winner of J-Cup – 9 race wins
