J/70 & J/24 French Nationals!(Crouesty de Arzon, France)- For the upcoming holiday weekend in France, the Yacht Club du Crouesty Arzon will be hosting their famous annual regatta- the Grand Prix du Crouesty. The event is held for three days out of Port Navalo with racing taking place on Bay de Morbihan. From May 22nd to 24th, YCCA expects over 250 boats to participate in a multitude of one-design classes. What makes it a fun event is that it is also very family oriented- this year’s theme is “Destination Cuba” and will feature Caribbean Pirates and other entertaining programs.
The French J/24 Class is hosting their French Nationals as part of GP Crouesty. It’s an especially
important
event for this class since it will serve as precursor to J/24 European
Championship being hosted from the 6th to 12th of June. In addition,
the J/70s in France are hosting their first Nationals as well. The
turnout expects to see some of the best teams in France participating
since the J/70 Worlds in La Rochelle are just over a month away.
Finally, the GP Crouesty also serves as the fourth act of the French
J/80 Coupe de France series. Watch their entertaining promo sailing video here. For more Grand Prix du Crouesty France sailing information
