The Taittinger Regatta (Yarmouth, United Kingdom) bathed competitors in a cool summer sea mist, but it did nothing to dampen the spirits of the regatta’s champagne reception. Thanks to the Race Office for their efforts in getting the J/24s their own start. A well-organized course made the western end of the Solent feel spacious, although they had many fleets to fit in. Saturday saw a challenging tide and a gusty breeze, and Sunday’s forecast gave even the most seasoned sailor a cause for concern. The consistent crew work of JOLLY ROGER meant a well-deserved first place. For more J/24 Taittinger Regatta sailing information, click here.
