Fleet 10 News
Dear fellow J105 sailors
Fleet 10 invites you for a weekend of intense competitive racing and merriment in one of the most exciting ports in the world, New York Harbor.
Please join us on May 19 & 20 for the second annual Manhattan Regatta. The challenge of navigating between tugs, barges and the Staten Island Ferry, while under the watchful gaze of the Statue of Liberty makes for a thrilling and unique racing experience. This is an event solely dedicated to the J105 class. Courses will primarily be windward/leeward with inflatable markers and managed by several support boats.
Social events include an outdoor barbeque aboard Liberty State Park’s Lightship and an awards party at North Cove Marina on Sunday after racing.
Berthing locations have many amenities within the length of a spin halyard, so boarding on/off your boat with restaurants, clubs and bars nearby,
make this regatta truly a destination event for the whole crew. And please invite family and friends too. Probably the only local J105 regatta where
spectators can watch the racing without ever stepping off land.
We hope you can join us. Just go to http://www.yachtscoring.com/emenu.cfm?eID=603 to see more information and to register.
