We couldn’t be more proud!! 🥇 Our very own Captain Will led his dad and 3 brothers to a first-place finish in the Inshore Handicap division at this year’s Charleston Race Week aboard his boat, Stella.

⛵️Charleston Race Week is the largest keelboat regatta in the western hemisphere, drawing hundreds of teams from across the country and around the world.

Stella won four out of nine races, and never finished worse than third, finishing the event with a low total of 12 points. Challenging conditions favored patience and tactical skill, allowing Stella remain at the front of the pact despite being the one of smallest boats in the fleet.

Charleston Race Week is the first event of the summer racing season, and this win comes on the heels of an extremely successful winter season, with a division win in the Nassau Cup Ocean Race and first place in the ORC 3 Division of the SORC Islands in the Stream series, as well as a second place finishes in the Ft. Lauderdale to Key West Race and the Wirth Munroe Ocean Race.
