Racing

The Ultimate 20 was built for racing, whether one-design or PHRF. Light, fast, and responsive, the U20 loves competition. National, regional and local fleet events can keep racing skippers busy. Because the boat is so mobile, allowing owners to travel easily, competition remains keen no matter where the races are held.

The U20 Class has held National regattas annually since 1995. Our Nationals rotate from the west coast, to east coast, and central, giving everyone an opportunity to participate and balancing the travel time between racers. The 2002 Nationals were held in Detroit, Michigan, hosted by Bayview Yacht Club.

Regional events such as NOODs are well attended with U20 section starts in many regattas. Local fleets don't let any grass grow on their bottoms either, challenging other U20s as well as PHRF boats.
