The 2023 CanAm Series concluded this past week in Port Charlotte. As usual the officers, members and staff of the Charlotte Harbor Yacht Club did a magnificent job hosting the 28 competitors over Events 4 and 5 of the series.

The sailing conditions were ideal with winds from 6-15 knots. The RC was able to put together five days of racing in the warm 80+ degree weather.

In the end, CanAm Event 4 ended with Bruce Millar, Jeff Linton and Allen Liebel on the podium. CanAm Event 5 concluded with Jeff Linton, Rudy Trejo and Bruce Millar in the top 3 spots.

The sailing moves north with an event at the Tred Avon Yacht Club later this month (April 28-30) and a full summer schedule in New England, Chicago and Canada.

These events featured four newcomers and many returnees commenting on how open and welcoming the class is.
