This page contains information for the Organizing Authorities of regattas which have been included as part of the J/24 Texas Circuit or as part of the J/24 District 14 Series. If you are a regatta organizer in charge of writing the NOR and/or Sailing Instructions for a regatta which is part of the J/24 Texas Circuit or the J/24 District 14 Series please see the appropriate section below.

J/24 Texas Circuit

If a regatta is part of the J/24 Texas Circuit (see list here), the results of the regatta will have an impact on qualification to next year’s J/24 World Championship and therefore special rules typically apply to J/24 competitors. These special rules are communicated to the competitors via addendums to the NOR and Sailing Instructions which regatta organizers should include as part of their NOR and Sailing Instructions. If you are a regatta organizer in charge of writing the NOR and/or Sailing Instructions for a regatta which is part of the J/24 Texas Circuit, please download the NOR and SI addendums from the links below, and please include them as part of the NOR and Sailing Instructions for your event. Examples of how to do this are shown below.
