Rolex Miami Olympic Classes Regatta
At the end of every January, we have the distinct honor of being part of the Rolex Miami Race Committee team while the competition for qualifying sailors ensues here in Biscayne Bay.
The 2010 World Cup Regatta was the 4th largest in the history of the event with 448 boats, 633 sailors from 45 nations participating.
Coral Reef Yacht Club and the US Sailing Center were the co-hosts for all events, and the Coconut Grove Sailing Club Race Management was responsible for the RS:X Men's and Women's fleets. We welcomed back PRO John Craig (St. Francis Yacht Club, San Francisco and on the Board of Directors of US Sailing) once again leading our team.
It was a very exciting week of international competition at the highest level for the Olympics!
