Cannigione - Gulf of Arzachena, June 9 to 13, 2008.
J 24 World Championship hosted by Club Nautico Arzachena drew a large international fleet from around the world.
While some of the world's best sailors have the latest version J/24, a well-prepared 1977 model, built to the same shape and weight with rigid end-grained balsa core construction can still win the class world championship even after 30,000+ miles of trailering.
That's "One Design". The International J/24 is built in the USA, Japan, Argentina and Italy and has more than 50,000 people sailing 5,300 boats in 150 fleets in 40 countries.
