RBBS Rolex Big Boat Series St. Francis Yacht Club | San Francisco, California | USA 12 If the Melges 32 proved anything at the Rolex Big Boat Series — it’s fully loaded with West Coast potential. The Melges 32 fleet spent four, high-quality days on San Francisco Bay with rapid current and conditions generating tight, competitive racing. John Porter on Full Throttle (who, at the time only sailed the Melges 32 once prior) along with his ‘boys’ — nephew Brian Porter Jr., son Corbet Porter and guided by Harry Melges calling tactics, Dave Navin, Charlie Harrett and Sam Rogers beat out Pieter Taselaar on Bliksem in second. Michael Illbruck on Pinta Racing, one of Porter's fiercest rivals, was third. Full Throttle. ©2008 JOY | IM32CA Two years of first-class, California-style racing definitely made an impression on the International Melges 32 Class Association. 2009 will bring the next National Championship, the very first North American Championship and of course another dose of RBBS!
