The North Star Sail Club, The City of Cheboygan, MI and the J/35 Class Association are proud to announce the 35th Anniversary of the J/35 National Championship, July 26 – 29, 2018.
Competing in the northern waters of Lake Huron between Cheboygan and Mackinac Island, the J/35 National Championship brings a competitive fleet of one-design sailors in a boat that brought dazzling offshore performance to sailors of varying experience and ability.
