Just a few days removed from the sprawling operation of the C420 U.S. National Championship, Little Egg Harbor Yacht Club shifted gears for its annual Down Bay Invitational Regatta, for which 152 sailors competed together Aug. 10 and 11.

“This week has been fabulous. We had this buzz the whole week with the young sailors. They cleared out Wednesday, and the Down Bay sailors started coming in Friday,” said LEHYC President and Commodore Richard Wagner.
