Keith Musto wins the Scuttlebutt Offshore Championships

Keith Musto showed both his small boat skills and his tenacity to win the
Annual Scuttlebutt Offshore Championship held this week in conjunction with
the Bitter End Yacht Club’s Pro-Am Regatta in the British Virgin Islands.

Sailing an IC 24, the former British Olympic medallist corrected to 4-1 on
the two-legged race from Virgin Gorda’s North Sound to The Baths and back to
take the championship.

The Pro-Am Regatta begins now, with guests at the Bitter End YC crewing for
the 10 invited pro skippers in a series of fleet and match races in IC 24s.
Competing skippers include Ben Ainslie, Ed Baird, Ken Read, Peter Holmberg,
Dawn Riley, Rod Johnstone, Bruce Kirby, Keith Musto, Lowell North, and Butch
Ulmer.
