Delta Ditch J/70 Blast!
(Richmond, CA)- The J/70s sailed as a class in this year’s crazy Delta
Ditch Run, that annual classic that starts off Richmond YC in the upper
San Francisco Bay and finishes in Stockton, CA, 60nm east up the
Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers. The top J/70s managed to cover the
race course in just over 10 1/2 hours! That’s quick considering that is
about a 5.7 kt average SOG against a 1.5 to 2.0 kt current!
