This past weekend, the Jachthaven Breskens hosted the very popular end-of-summer sailing season regatta- the Breskens Sailing Weekend.

It's a popular event for a few J/Boats teams in the Netherlands and Benelux. The regatta format is simply windward-leeward races just offshore of the harbor entrance.

ORC 1 Division

Sailing in this dozen-boat fleet, it was Rutger Krijger's J/112E JACK RABBIT that handily won the class with 19.5 pts net in their seven-race series.

ORC 2 Division

Leading a sweep of the top two spots in this thirteen-boat fleet was Jan Scholze's J/99 WARP 5 with 14 pts net. Second place went to the experienced offshore team on Arjen van Leeuwin's J/109 JOULE with 19.5 pts net.

ORC 3 Division

This eleven-boat fleet had two J/crews. Taking the silver medal was Rene van Quekelberghe's J/97 JAI HO with 11.5 pts net, while Dimitri Vanvyve's J/105 JUGGERNAUT ended up with the bronze medal with 18.5 pts net.
