The just concluded 2011 Martin 242 North American Championships were highlighted by beautiful conditions, featuring high temperatures and frustrating, shifty winds. The 2009 North American championship team skippered by Mike George along with Mike Pentecost & Kenny Dair showed why they’re at the top of their game. After 40degree shift to the right put them on the wrong side of the course in the first race they settled in to see three bullets over this three day world class event. Well-deserved for this long time participant of this event!
