We added a couple of new races to the distance series this year. As always big wind shifts and the weather played their part this summer, but none the less the competition was really close this year.
Congratulations to all the winners and a big thank you to our sponsor VIN.
We are avid J/105 sailors promoting seamanship and competition on Lake Michigan.

Beer Can Results 2017
It was an a interesting summer for the Beer Can racers this year. While in general the weather was really nice this summer, it seemed storms rolled though Chicagoland almost every Wednesday, making for a number of cancellations and "hugely" varied sailing conditions. None the less, a number of J105's came out to play and did very well as they proved that the J-105 is indeed the best boat on lake Michigan.
Congratulations to the winners:
1st Peregrine (4th overall out 28 boats in Spin 2)
2nd Esprit d'Ecosse (They did over 60 races this year!)
3rd Valhalla
