History of the J/24 Texas Circuit

History of the J/24 Texas Circuit

The J/24 Texas Circuit is the longest standing championship series in the United States. It all started in 1978 when John Kolius (Houston Yacht Club), a Seabrook fixture who went on to win the 1979 and 1981 J/24 World Championships, and a few other leading Texas sailors bought the newly introduced J/24 in 1978. Over forty years later, the J/24 Texas Circuit is still going strong.
