A Week of Clear Air with Rossi Milev, 2017 J/24 World Champion We caught up with Rossi Milev, this years' J/24 World Champion, who sailed to victory at his home yacht club in Port Credit, Ontario.

Rossi Milev, with his crew on Clear Air, 2017 J24 World Champions. Champagne shower!

PCYC member Rossi Milev, middle, and his winning crew on Canadian boat Clear Air won the J24 Worlds today!

Canada's Rossi Milev and Clear Air wins the Championship! Day 5 Report: Argentina's Nicolas Cubria on ARG5499 Elvis won Race 8 handily in the championship's generally unusual and annoying 5-7 knot winds, while Canada's Rossi Milev on Clear Air took second and the overall lead on Bangor Packet's Tony Parker. Wind picked up to 8 knots allowing a Race 9 - and 3 meaningful legs until the wind completely died at the bottom of the fourth leg, forcing abandonment. PCYC member Rossi Milev's World Championship win is the pinnacle of a long and successful J/24 career for Rossi and his crew on J/24 Clear Air. Final results below (post revised Sep.23/17 9:30 pm):
