Block Island Race Week, June 21-25

This is the early summer classic, featuring five days of racing in Block Island Sound, with one day dedicated to a 20 mile Round the Island race. Based on feedback from J/109 owners registered for the event, the following format will apply for the J/109 class at Block Island:
Class sails plus one roller-furling PHRF (145-155%) genoa and one PHRF (larger than 108SM) spinnaker.
Sail Declarations to be filed with J Boats in advance so that discrepancies in sail sizes can be properly handicapped.
In lieu of weighing crew, the crew limit will be skipper plus 7.

To date we have 7 J/109s registered at Block with a month left to register.
