J/70 - 2017 World Championship - Porto Cervo / Sardinia ITA - Sept 12 - 16, Registration closed, 173 boats' record fleet

Registration has closed with a record breaking fleet of 173 teams from 25 different nations for the upcoming J/70 World Championship (Sept 12 to 16) that will be organized by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda. The chance of competing in one of the world's most famous areas for yachting has been a contributing factor in the even-better-than-expected turnout for this popular One Design event. J/70s are increasingly popular thanks to the J/70 builder's promotion and to the constant efforts on the part of the J/70 International Class Association and the single national J/70 associations.
