“USUAL SUSPECTS is a Corinthian program committed to high-performance racing in the GL52 class driven by family, friends, and a shared passion for competitive sailing.“
~ Ella Wynsma Baker
The USUSAL SUSPECTS team looks forward to racing with the GL52 fleet for their fourth season in 2025, and with a new boat! Eric Wynsma, whose background includes both offshore sailing and inshore dinghy racing told us: “We absolutely love the 52 group! Our focus will remain on the Corinthian Series events, which highlights the offshore long-distance races as well as the Little Traverse YC Ugotta Regatta in Harbor Springs.”
The USUAL SUSPECTS team took first place in the GL52 division of the 2023 Chicago Mackinac Race. This achievement by a Corinthian team– racing among and against Open 52 teams (crews containing more than 3 pro sailors)– exemplifies the fantastic sailing enjoyed by all in the fleet.
