| Providing a runway to the Olympic Games for prospective US athletes. | We are thrilled to continue the West Marine US Open Sailing series this year and we’re off to a great start. | The West Marine US Open Sailing series kicked off earlier this year with events in Ft. Lauderdale and Miami. The final set of Florida races concluded in Clearwater Sunday February 6th after three days of racing in a variety of conditions. The ILCA 6, ILCA 7, Nacra 15, iQFOiL, and Formula Kite all completed between 8 and 11 races over three days. | Friday saw champagne conditions, with 12-16 knots from the southwest under sunny skies, while Saturday brought the heat, testing athletes’ endurance in 16-20 knots and five-foot seas. The wind settled down on Sunday, staying light throughout the day, causing racing to be cancelled for the iQFOiL class. All other classes were able to get at least one race completed. | Well-rounded athletes excelled over the six classes this weekend, making this event a showcase of some of the best Olympic talent in America and beyond. | “With the West Marine Open Series, we’re trying to build a platform that is an opportunity for all the US Sailors to gain the strength that comes with depth of a national fleet,” said Paul Cayard, Executive Director of US Olympic Sailing. | | | |
