With only one race sailed on the last day, Jonathan Calascione & Seb Ripard’s HARLEQUIN were unbeatable in the 20-strong J/70 fleet at the J/Cup at Royal Southern Yacht Club in The Hamble, UK. The Maltese-British team, including Royal Southern’s 420 World Champion Annabel Vose and Sebastian Ripard from Malta, were pushed all the way by Simon Ling’s RAF BENEVOLENT FUND SPITFIRE, the reigning J/70 Corinthian World Champions. Charlie Esse’s BABY J was third, with a crew including J/70 EuroCup champion Ruairidh Scott. Congratulations should also go to J/70 teams who made the podium against three notable adversaries: Steve Northmore’s WATERJET PRECISION CUTTING, Clive Bush’s DARCEY, Greg Hall’s VALKYRIE and Allan Higgs EFS ENERGY.
