2009 Lightning Boat Grant Skipper – James Morton
Crew - Kyle Fast, Jay Greenfield

James Morton

Currently attending Union College in Schenectady, New York, James Morton has spent quite a few summers making his rounds of the Orient Yacht Club Lightning Fleet. Whether it be as steady crew or stand-in skipper, his enthusiasm has overflowed into club’s junior sailors. James is really looking forward to skippering a top quality racing boat and enthusiastically wants to attend every regatta he can. Kyle Fast and Jay Greenfield will crew for James. They all have impressive racing resumes. With a goal to compete in the North Americans, this team should be a common sight, especially in the Long Island and Connecticut /Rhode Island Districts, as well as other “big” regattas like the ACCs.
