Consistency proved to be the highlight, as now four-time winner Terry McLaughlin & Rod Wilmer’s Mandate came out on top at the J/105 North American Championship sponsored by The British Virgin Islands in Cleveland, OH. Fraser Howell, Ian Howes, Andrew Kenny and John Millen from Royal Canadian Yacht Club in Toronto accomplished the feat without a first-place finish. Bill Zartler’s Deja Voodoo was a close second and Tim Russell’s NeNe, a competitive third.
