Larsen Marine - Weekend Warrior Series
Vin Chicago - Distance Series
Fluky winds and big shifts are a major part of sailing on
Lake Michigan. You'll need great boat speed and a little luck in these
challenging port-to-port races. Plus,
there's always a great party at the finish.
These races will be Class C3 events so you can bring a sailing pro,
sailmaker, or coach. The series is
scored with the high point scoring system with no throw out.
Wednesday Night Beer Can Series
This is a series that a number of J105's boats have always
participated and done well in, a great way to get out on the lake do some casual racing and
enjoy the sights. These races are is Class C3 events.
Casual Distance Races
An intermediate distance series meant to be a more casual day on the
lake, perhaps an introduction to racing, a great way to bring out some non-sailing
guests or introduce people to racing. These are Class C3. Come out and just have a good time.
