Thistle Nationals is back in the Northeast and you’re not going to want to miss it!
Thistle Nationals 2024 is going to be hosted at the Toms River Yacht Club and sailed in Barnegat Bay. This is a great club that has a history of hosting big events. In the last few years they have hosted the Lightning North American Championship, Optimist Atlantic Coast Championship, Star North American Championship, and the U.S. Junior Sailing Championships for the Sears, Bemis and Smythe Trophies. They are enthusiastic to host Thistle Nationals and we can be confident that they can run a high-quality event.
