The Dinghy Shop is hosting
both the 2024 Sunfish Junior and 2024 Women's North American Championships.
Both events are open to junior sailors and will be sailed in Amityville on the
Great South Bay. Both regattas are great opportunities for local junior sailors
to compete in a national level event right here in their own backyard.
Although the Sunfish is not a
typical boat sailed in JSA events, just about every club has a few laying
around on the property somewhere.
