Bluebird day for Key West snowbirds

Key West, FL (January 18, 2022) – The second day of the 2022 Southernmost Regatta did little to disrupt the leaders in four classes, but the Melges 24 fleet saw Peter Duncan’s Rasta Mixta win both races today to now hold the top position. Day one leaders continued today through two more races for David Team’s Vesper (GL52), Bobby Julien’s Dingbat (J/70), Andrew and Sedgwick Ward’s Bravo (J/111), and Gwen Fragomen’s Interlodge IV (ORC).

Racing is planned for January 17-21.
