Chicago's own J/30 Circus is in second place after two races at Terra Nova's Key West Race Week.

Yeah and check out this photo of them from the Key West photos section

I sent an e-mail to Susan requesting permission to use the photo on J30.org.

Circus is WINNING the PHRF 11 class!!!

Circus is still in 1st with one more day to race....

Go Mike! Al, Christine, ...)

I was under the impression that the "-3" in race one shown after 8 races indicated a throwout for Circus, and meant that the division would have no Friday racing (unused layday?). If I am correct, Circus has won the division.
Go Circus!

Anyone know of J/30 crew at KWRW? Team Zephyr is split between two boats (1) Tiburon and (2) Mad Max II.

No, there was a 9th race. And Circus took first, winning PHRF 11! Yay!

Anyone know why KWRW put Circus in PHRF 11 versus 10? If I recall, the handicapping in 10 would have been tighter.
Congrat's Circus!

I think it was a matter of putting like performing boats together. The race chair tries to explain that a bit at: http://www.premiere-racing.com/keywest/2004_KW/kw_2004_entries.htm
There was a MORC section (PHRF 9), "light to moderate displacement 25-27 footers" (PHRF 10).

Some of the Sea Biscuit crew are regulars on the J/120 Eurotrash Girl, 2nd in PHRF 5 and 2nd in the sub class for J/120 (interestingly behind different boats...).
