The Ultimate 20 Class Association has hosted a North American Championship every year since the class was created in 1995. The Executive Board rotates the location of the championship between the active fleet areas of the country to ensure opportunity for participation. Districts also hold "Coast Championship" regattas annually.
The Executive Board welcomes submissions for the North American Championship venue. If you would like to propose one, please contact a board member.
