With the 2011 New England sailing season starting to wind down we thought it would be good to see how “our team” made out over the season at the various classic yacht regattas.
By “our team” we obviously refer to boats that have been built here at Brooklin Boat Yard but also we include boats that have been designed here at the yard and also boats that are maintained and stored by us.
Looking back over the summer it turns out “our team” has done pretty darn good job of dominating the Spirit of Tradition Class (SOT) and making a very healthy showing in overall (OA) regatta standings
