The 2023 Finn North American Masters Championship, hosted by the Buccaneer Yacht Club, took place March 31-April 2 on Mobile Bay, Alabama. The event attracted a diverse group of 40+ year olds competing in wind conditions ranging between 10 to 15 knots. After seven races, John F. Dane emerged as the winner, edging out Darrell Peck by two points. Notable for the North American class was the new US-built R1 Finn used by Peck, with it proving to be fast both upwind and downwind. – Details
