Straight wins for Casey and Williams

The U.S. Multihull Championship came to a close after racing was cancelled on Saturday

Racing at the U.S. Multihull Championship was exciting until the last day, Saturday, when no wind showed up on the waters off host club Melbourne Yacht Club in Melbourne, Florida. For John Casey and John Williams, that was good news. The two Floridians demonstrated a very consistent performance throughout the regatta by winning every race they competed in, earning the National Championship title and US Sailing's Hobie Alter Cup.

It wasn't as easy for the winners as it sounds, Casey and Williams were closely followed by Olympic medalist and US Sailing Team member John Lovell and his wife Katy Pilley-Lovell, who finished second in every race. Third place went to John and Tiffany Tomko. The Hoyt Jolley Sportsmanship Trophy was awarded to Matt McDonald.

First held in 1987, the U.S. Multihull Championship is sailed annually, each year in a different multihull class at a different venue. The U.S. Multihull Championship is sponsored by Rolex Watch U.S.A., which sponsors all of US Sailing's National Adult Championships. This year's Championship was sailed on Blade F16s, supplied by Vectorworks.
