The 2007 edition of the Chubb U. S. Junior Sailing Championships is underway.  This year, Lavallette Yacht Club, Lavallette, NJ is the host venue for the U.S. Junior Triplehanded Sailing Championship for the Sears Cup and the Bay Head and Mantoloking Yacht Clubs are jointly hosting the U.S. Junior Singlehanded Sailing Championship for the Smythe Trophy and the U.S. Junior Doublehanded Sailing Championship for the Bemis Trophy.

 

Today (Sunday) was the clinic day with Head Coach John Vandemoer taking care of the Doublehanded fleet in Club 420’s. Elizabeth Kratzig is the coach for the Singlehanded fleet in standard rig Lasers.  Ned Jones is the coach for the Triplehanded crowd sailing in Nomads.  The boats in all three fleets are being supplied by Vanguard Sailboats.

  

 Vanguard Sailboat’s Nomad was selected this year for the first time.  The Nomad is a fairly new design and is a 17 foot center boarder with an extending spinnaker sprit.  We expect a great regatta with the boats.
