Rochester Yacht Club has been a wonderful host for this regatta.  Nothing has been too much trouble for the club staff and the members and volunteers who have been part of the regatta have put in many hours of their spare time to make this a truly outstanding event.  From hosting visiting sailors in their homes and boats to providing race committee, administrative and media support the Rochester Yacht Club members have gone the extra mile every time!  Thank you Rochester Yacht Club – we can’t recommend you highly enough to other classes for their future championships
