To help other Melges 24s go to the Melges 24 Worlds at Key West Race Week my crew and I have worked out a deal where it only costs $400 a person. This includes entry fee ,dockage, and hotel room for the whole week. With this low a dollar figure I cannot afford not to go!

Jacksonville was its usual great self for the Atlantic Coast Championship which saw the fleet enjoy some fantastic racing and some equally fantastic partying.
