The J/Fest Southwest Regatta celebrated its 14th anniversary this year from November 2-3. The 11-boat J/105 fleet saw a New York-based family (the McKeiges) take home the win after an eight-race series. Father Doug and sons Will and Ian sailed ROCKY to an insurmountable 6-point lead, counting three bullets and three seconds in their 17 points total. The balance of the McKiege family crew included Birger Balteskard, Sean Curry, Roscoe Taylor, Torkel Rhenman and Sean Walsh. Taking the silver with 23 points was Don Peloquin’s USUAL SUSPECTS, with crew of Mark Funk, Velko Roskar, Mike Royer, Roscoe Taylor, Jaime Torres and Chrisann Tortora. Rounding out the podium was Tom Collier’s INFINITY with crew of Alan Bates, Doug Cagfle, Corrie Lambert, Paul Parsons and Drew Peerless.
