<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Corbel",sans-serif">The Sonar Class Association (SCA) met and decided to cancel the 2021 North Americans at Wayzata Yacht Club (WYC). The COVID-19 pandemic has created numerous challenges. While the decision wasn't
easy, feedback from various yacht clubs was that traveling and participation in a North American Championship level regatta in 2021 was not feasible. The Board firmly desires to maintain the quality and participation of the event for all teams.
