CYC's committee boat, YC V, above, launched the fleet on one of five races sailed
on Sunday, May 23, the last day of the three-day J/24 North American Championship
based at Shilshole. Pat Toole of Santa Barbara, Calif., and the crew of 3 Big Dogs
won the event, followed by Seattle's Keith Whittemore sailing Tundra Rose, and
Scott Milne's Tremendous Slouch, also from Seattle. Thirty-five boats sailed in the
event, including teams from the U.S., Canada, Argentina, Japan and the Dominican
Republic. The regatta featured fair winds all three days and almost no rain.
Corinthian member Joy Okazaki was the principal organizer of the event. In the
