 Current World Champ Pablo Santrude Del Arco (ESP) who won the Worlds held in Bilboa, Spain in 2019 celebrates with his crew.  

The race to become 2020 World Champion is still months away, but already a strong international contingent are arranging for charter boats in Newport, RI come September. We have heard of several past champions who will try again to recapture the crown in Newport. 

We thought it worthwhile to review the list of J/80 World Champs below.
​Spanish teams have dominated the event in recent years.
