Cronulla J/24 Short Course Is The Bomb!

J/24 Cronulla Sydney Australia (Sydney, Australia)- “Hello all J/24 sailors near and far.  Ever been to Sydney, Australia?  If not, then you need to come down and join us for the extremely famous Macquart Marine Cronulla J/24 Short Course Regatta!

Starting 3 years ago, the Cronulla Sailing Club became the retirement home for a number of J/24 yachts in Australia. We thought, let's get these great boats out and racing; focusing on participation and not just regular J/24 class “sausage racing”.  When we mean ‘short course’, they really are short courses— and different kinds, too!

Now, three years on, our fleet is still growing.  Moreover, some newer boats are arriving and some of our boats are making the journey to other states for regattas.  For example, many of our teams at Cronulla sailed the Vic States that saw 27 boats competing, a record for some years!

Our regatta is from the 6th to 8th of June at the Cronulla Sailing Club, Sydney Australia.  We invite anyone with a pulse to join us Down Under in our cozy little corner of the world!”  Thanks to Mick Reynolds, CSC Regatta organizer (email- j24aus1646@gmail.com).  For more Cronulla J/24 Short Course Regatta sailing information
