San Diego Hot Rum Series
The third and final race of the very popular San Diego Yacht Club Hot Rum Series finished as it started under clear sunny skies and perfect sailing conditions. The winds from 9-18 knots made for a fast trip around the five-legged pursuit course. The J/105s continued to dominate Class 3 and did very well overall in the 141-boat fleet. Dennis Case’s Wings was first in class and third overall holding off Rick Goebel’s Sanity who took second in class and fourth overall. Dag-Fish’s Viggen was fourth in class and eight overall. Steve and Lucy Howell’s Blink was sixth in class and 12 overall. Ed Sanford’s Creative was seventh in class and 23 overall. All in all. a good showing for the J/105 and a whole lot of fun.
