In order to maintain our competitive position, the team has decided to purchase a fleet of 420s, which is where we are seeing a number of highly ranked teams going. They will be purchased from Zim sailing and will be manufactured and built in Rhode Island, and will be available for the fall 2022 season. In addition, we will be keeping 6 of our FJs so our team can be more agile and competitive, and will be purchasing new custom sails (plan visible above) for both the old and new boats. Some boats have already been named, but there are still several hulls available to name for those who make donations of $10,000 or more. If you are interested in naming rights, please reach out to pappenfus@gmail.com.
