Coast Guard Alumni Like the Sea and its Lore
The 51st Newport to Bermuda Race provided a true test of
seamanship to several modern-day Coast Guard Academy adventurers. Let's hear
what they have to say about it: "Although the lack of wind was frustrating at times,
there was no lack of adventure. Halfway through the race, we spotted something
on the horizon that had a black bottom and orange top…a life raft." - Lt.
Cdr. J.J. Schock The Sequel is a Winner for YYZRacing was not top of mind when Justin Bonar decided to buy a Jeanneau 53 in 2013, but the boat was fast and his friends encouraged him. “We made lots of mistakes at first,” he admits, “but we became competitive in 2015 and got the big idea to do the Newport Bermuda Race in 2016.” Justin raced YYZ to Bermuda in both 2016 and 2018
and made videos of the adventure each time. On the Jeanneau 53’s second trip to
the Onion Patch, the team also won its class, and the skipper doubled down on
video production. |
