FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – The inaugural Lauderdale Olympic Classes Regatta was held last weekend. The event grew out of the annual Finn Midwinter and Women's Laser Radial North Americans that Lauderdale Yacht Club has hosted since 1982. This year, Men's Laser full rigs, I-420s and 29ers were added to the mix along with the inclusion of men in the Laser Radial class. The idea was to make this regatta an easy follow on to the ISAF Sailing World Cup Miami. Over 60 boats took part this year and they were treated to three days of outstanding conditions and racing in the ocean just south of the Port Everglades inlet. Entrants came from all over the world with nine countries represented in the fleet.
