GovCup 2017: 12 skippers invited from AUS, GBR, JPN, NZL, and USA.

SAILING ILLUSTRATED is going to be giving plenty of coverage to Balboa YC's 51st annual Governor's Cup, presented by Farmers and Merchants Bank, the prestigious international youth match racing championship that will be held July 17-22. It's a terrific event, both for the sailors involved and the sport in general. This first Regatta Notice was issued this evening, and details the impressive group of skippers who have been invited.
