Detroit PHRF RATING—138 DRYA One Design, 153
DRYA JAM
The E27 has had a one design start on the DRYA C Course
since the Detroit fleet was founded in 1986. The largest
one design fleet is in San Francisco Bay where there are
more than 30 boats. There is a small fleet also in Oregon.
The rest of the boats are scattered around the U.S. and
Canada. The National Championship is usually held in San
Francisco. Detroit has hosted the event three times. Wally
Cross won the national championship when the regatta
was held in Detroit in 1987, Other luminaries who have
won the nationals include John Kostecki, Jeff Madrigali and
Dave Hodges of Santa Cruz Sails.E27s were among the first
ultralight sport boats when production started at Alsberg
Bros. Boatworks in 1982. The Carl Schumaker design
caught on quickly on the West Coast where the boat is
concentrated. Several boats do the Pacific Cup race from
San Francisco to Hawaii and the Coastal Cup every year.
The boat was designed and built to Lloyd’s ocean racing
standards. Also, it meets the Chicago YC stability standard
for the Chicago Mac.
