International 505 Fleet 19 at WRSC |
|
| International 505 USA Fleet 19 is one of the most active fleets at WRSC. It has been expanding recently, with sailors ranging from good club racers to college sailors of the year getting into 505s. Fleet 19 is one of the stronger 505 fleets in North America, with a three time North American Champion and several other top North American teams. The fleet includes couples, families, recent college grads, and 505 veterans in their 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s. The The 505 Fleet 19 (Annapolis, Baltimore, Washington and area) Web Site includes more information, and lists sailors who recently joined fleet 19, along with a roster. Fleet 19 members - if they are not at an out of town regatta - can usually be found at WRSC practicing on any windy summer weekend. | |
| We would love to get you out for a ride in a 505, please contact 505 Fleet Captain Barney Harris if you are interested. | |
