Momentum continues to grow for the J/Clan in the San Francisco Bay area. The latest one-design fleets to develop on the Bay are the J/70 and J/111. The J/70s are over two dozen boats and have an active one-design regatta circuit, plus they are looking forward to hosting the 2016 J/70 World Championships at St Francis Yacht Club! Now is the time to hop aboard the #70 train to the Worlds!
In addition, the J/111s are approaching a “baker’s dozen”; they’ve had fabulous one-design racing on the Bay, including the Rolex Big Boat Series as well as astonishing success in offshore in events like the Windjammer Race, the Farallones Double, the Three Bridge Fiasco and the Spinnaker Cup.
