The 2022 NJISA fall sailing season got underway with the annual Sailfest Regatta at Toms River Yacht Club. Eighteen teams from 13 schools came out for the season opener, which saw beautiful 75 degree weather and sunny skies. Racing was postponed for one hour while the fleet waited for the breeze to fill in. All 10 W4 races were sailed in a shifty east-southeast breeze that ranged from 4-10 knots.
Donovan Catholic showed no signs of rust, winning seven of the 10 races, to cruise to a 23-point victory. Christian Brothers Academy was a solid second place, while Pingry, Summit, and Toms River North rounded out the top five. Donovan's James Kopack and Caroline Felser won the A Division, while Donovan's Kevin Brooksbank and Nora Ciak topped B Division.
Thanks to Donovan's Brian Hull for serving as the PRO and CBA's Jason Lutz for running the mark boat. Thank you to TRYC for welcoming high school sailing back for another season and to the BBYRA for continuing the partnership with the FJ fleet.
