Yachting Cup racing was blessed with champagne San Diego sailing conditions on the first day, presenting an average of 13 knots steadily through the day. Visitors from neighboring cities got lucky with blue skies and sunshine. Seven classes sailed on two ocean courses just south of Point Loma, with a special Classics/Navigator course that started in the “near ocean course” and concluded with a Bay tour on the city front. The J/111 REVO, driven by Yumio Dornberg, finished first in their class with three firsts and three seconds. Commenting on their win, Dornberg said, “It’s the team. Bruce and Chuck are doing an amazing job at getting us around the course and hitting the shifts. We’re kind of inexperienced on this boat. Everyone else is stepping in and switching positions a lot to get things done.” For more San Diego Yachting Cup information, visit https://www.yachtingcup.com/.
