Congratulations to Luca Santella "USA-551 Joe Fly" (ITA-550) and owner Giovanni Maspero, he and his crew are the 2004 US National Champions.

The scene was set for 14 Melges 24s at the second US ranking event of the year, in Annapolis poised for it's largest NOOD regatta ever. Sailing on the open water near Thomas point meant less Annapolis port traffic to deal with and, certainly kept us out of the way of the 80 J22's.

The official 2004 North American Championship Web site is up and running. Preparations are now underway for one of the hottest regattas to hit the Midwest region.

An invitation from the French Class - Have you ever sailed in La Rochelle, this beautiful old city and historic port on the seaside?
