They reflect what the early members agreed to find that balance between our new J70 sailors and the grizzled veterans to encourage fast and fun and fair J70 sailing. As such the overall sail limitations and pro participation guidelines for Club racing are intact.

Our members bring the best of ideas from many fleets in the Club, for example inclusiveness and fun from the Capri fleet and hardcore competition from the J24 and J22 fleets. The goal is to grow the fleet by incorporating these best practices.
