The inaugural Great Lakes J/Fest happens next week at Ashbridge’s Bay Yacht Club. One-Design racing takes place all weekend for J 105, J 80, J 27, J35 and J 24 (with 5 confirmed entries per class) and also for PHRF class(es.)

In addition, Geoff Moore of North Sails will be conducting on-water &/or on-shore workshops on Friday afternoon/evening.

ABYC water level continues to drop and docking and rafting areas are being laid out for one-design and PHRF boats. A strong turnout is expected so on shore events will follow racing. Regatta information and registration at abyc.on.ca on the Racing pages
