Local sailors traveled to St Petersburg Yacht Club to participate in the Haley Hanson Sailing World Regatta.
Two S2-7.9 teams competed in that fleet's mid-winter championship. Rash (formerly Matros) was sailed by Paul Latour, David Curtze, Bill Elder, Chris Dupont and Jackson Miller. Scalded Dawg was campaigned by James O'Dell, Iain Montgomery, Dennis Colby, Tim Naiser and Josh Kizer.
This event was also the Melges 24 North American Sailing Series Qualifier. Local Melges 24 sailor Cody Hall competed with the Smile and Wave crew.
