New York Yacht Club, Newport, RI

The 2010 NYYC IC U.S. Qualifying Series is an invitational fleet racing regatta to be sailed in Sonars and J/22s for qualifying and consolation rounds. Twenty-four yacht club teams from around the country has been divided by draw into two twelve-team groups. After a two-day Preliminary Series, the top six in each group will meet in the Championship Series in Sonars, with the top three teams in the final series qualifying for an invitation to the NYYC Invitational Cup held in Swan 42 Class yachts in September 2011. The bottom six in each group will meet in a consolation series in J/22s. This series is the only opportunity for U.S. Yacht Clubs to earn an invitation to the 2011 NYYC Invitational Cup.

Championship Fleet

In looking at the results for teams that qualified for the Gold fleet, while many of the top teams had nearly identical scores in both the Sonars and J/22s, some teams appear to have a strong preference for one over the other.  For instance, American had 23 points (tied for the lowest of any team) in the Sonars and 55 in the J/22s.  They should be happy.  Bayview, Indian Harbor, San Francisco and Carolina had better scores in the J/22s.
