Class member John Dane III, Pass Christian Yacht Club in Pass Christian, MS (Gulf Coast Region) won the Star Class Olympic Trials. He is married to Leslie Weatherly, a four time Sunfish Woman’s World Champion. Some may remember John at Midwinters at Fort Walton Yacht Club in Florida, where he raced the first day with his board in backwards. His son, loudly, pointed out the error on a downwind leg.


Former class member, Johnny Lovell of Southern Yacht in New Orleans, LA won the Tornado Class Olympic Trials. This is Johnny’s fourth Olympics. Last year, he brought home the Silver.

Also this year, Paul Foerster competed in the Pan Am Games and finished third (Bronze).

Let’s support and cheer on these sailors and the rest of the Olympic Team!
