CANAM SERIES HEADS NORTH
2.4mR Great Lakes Regatta
This past weekend, the 3rd regatta of the 2.4mR CanAm North Regatta Series was hosted by National Yacht Club. Participants travelled from Florida, Maryland, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Montreal and Ottawa to compete with the local NYC 2.4 fleet. The 15 boat fleet sailed 7 races to complete the regatta. In 3rd place was NYC’s Darrell Suderman, in 2nd place, Dee Smith of Annapolis, and in 1st place, NYC’s Allan Leibel. The 2.4mR Canadian Championship, hosted by NYC on Sept 7/8, will be the fourth and final regatta of the 2.4mR CanAm North Series. Initiated in Port Charlotte FL several years ago, the 2.4mR CanAm Series has been a fantastic venue for Canadian sailors to get competitive racing with minimal logistics over the winter months. This is the first year for the ‘North” version of the CanAm series. North Sails Toronto is proud to support such an interactive and vibrant fleet; congratulations to all participants!
