The Surfin’ Safari Regatta hosted by Corpus Christi Yacht Club was held June 25-26. Seventeen boats competed in this “pre-worlds” event, and included many of the top contenders for the World Championship in July. John Mollicone and team took the win, with Keith Whittemore in second. “We trained in the chop early in the week and then sailed the regatta and found that it was time well spent for sure. While it was quite hot on land, it’s really nice on the water in the big breeze. What a lovely place to sail!” said Will Welles of the venue.
