(Annapolis, MD)- Attention all J/70 sailors! J/World Annapolis is
anxiously awaiting the delivery of their J/70 (USA 357) this August and
are planning events for the boat in 2013 and 2014. There is a unique
opportunity for new and potential J/70 buyers to "try before they buy"
while also getting top level racing and boat-handling coaching as well
as experiencing the first J/70 North American Championship this
September.
Beginning Monday, September 23, 2013 J/World Annapolis will be
conducting a three day training clinic followed by three days of racing
in the 2013 J/70 North American Championship. This six day racing event
is patterned after our "super-week" training program and includes
on-board coaching for all six days, three days of pre-event multi-boat
training, daily video and still image debriefing and nightly discussions
with J/70 sailmakers and local racing experts.
This program is perfect for new and prospective J/70 owners for several
reasons. First and foremost, owners quickly maximize their sailing
experience by working through the boat-handling gremlins that can plague
self taught teams.
Second, the methodology is easily transferred to crews when clients
return to their teams - making the owner's programs stronger. J/World
believes well-rounded racing education requires cross-training, and our
program will put each client into each of the roles onboard. During
practice and the regatta clients will rotate through each of the roles,
gaining valuable experience in every position and valuable knowledge
that will help them train their own crews.
Finally, because this will be an "owner crewed" event J/World are
creating relationships that make racing fun and create important
peer-to-peer networks that strengthen the class.
J/World Annapolis have nearly two decades of experience conducting this
style of training program in the J/80 and look forward to bringing their
experience and training program to the J/70 class. In addition to the
J/70 North Americans they will be conducting this style of program at
Key West Race Week, St Petersburg NOOD, Miami Race Week, Charleston Race
Week and Annapolis NOODs.
The J/70 North American six day regatta program is $2,495 per person and
includes three days of training, three days of racing, event
registration, crew gear and lunch each day. It is exclusive of travel
and lodging.
