NEWPORT J CLASS REGATTA - Report No.4

After a long and frustrating wait at the dock, the third and critical race in the Newport J Class Regatta, was postponed to be raced another day.  A deep depression covered the area and with strong wind and torrential rain it was decided to re-run the race, if possible, on Saturday 18th June.

The next race is critical for Velsheda, as Ranger has a 2-0 lead in the 5 race series.  If weather permits, many thousands of spectators, both on the shore and on the water are expected for the weekend.
