2005 Key West J/120 Pictures

"This may be the best boat racing venue in the world. I haven’t been to all the top spots, but I’m confident you would be hard pressed to do better. The sun was out every day, the water was warm and the wind was great. The people at Premiere Racing do an incredible job making sure everything runs like clockwork. What else could you ask for?”

All 7 J/120's sailed out into a cotton patch of whitecaps for the first six races. On Monday a 25+ mph was recorded. Although the latter part of the week yielded lighter air the competition was superb.   

Winner of the J/120 class was George Petride's Avra, holding the lead all week. A surprise end was accomplished by Roger Elliot's Crosswave by having a fantastic end of the week beating K2 and Carinthia out for 2nd place. The complete result of the race can be found by clicking here. As the saying goes a bad day on the water is better than a good day at work!
