J/122 Class at Greenwich Cup

The J/122 class sailed as Division 1 at the Greenwich Cup, a 4-race, two day series last weekend at Indian Harbor Yacht Club, in Greenwich, CT. Mike Bruno of WINGS emailed in the following report: “We had 3 races the first day in shifty northwest breezy conditions and Barry Gold on SUNDARI sailed superbly to two firsts and a second. WINGS was next with two seconds and a first and Andrew Weiss’ CHRISTOPHER DRAGON was third. DRAGON managed to get a large stick fouled between her rudder and keel and would likely have won the race she got a 4th in. WINGS managed to pull it out on day two (light dying conditions) getting the gun on the only race of the day and winning first overall in the regatta by 2 points over SUNDARI followed by CHRISTOPHER DRAGON and CATAPULT.”

The Long Island Sound fleet will be split up sailing in several events including Newport-Bermuda and Block Island, before regrouping as a class in July for the East Coast Championships in Newport, RI.
