J/24s Battle at Island Water World Grenada Sailing Week

The final day of Island Water World Grenada Sailing Week was Mount Gay Rum Race Day. Racing took place on the South Coast of Grenada with the trade winds pumping up to 20 knots in the gusts with a modest swell punctuated by bigger sets of rollers emanating from the Atlantic. The overall lead in the J/24 Class changed every day of the regatta, such was the intensity of the competition. After 18 hard fought rounds, Robbie Yearwood’s Die Hard (GRN) came back off the ropes to win by a single point from Nick Forsberg’s Jabal (LCA). Gus Reader’s Fadeaway (BAR) won the last race of the regatta but finished third just three points behind the winner. For complete event details, visit www.grenadasailingweek.com.
