The Jet 14 sailboat is a One-Design racing dinghy. The fleets are organized by the Jet 14 Class Association, which is broken into four divisions based upon geographical locations of the fleets. District I is in New Jersey, District II is in Ohio, District III is in Maryland, and District IV is in upstate New York. A variety of events are held for the jets all year, with the major events being the Silver Chevron competition and the Jet 14 Nationals. Clubs often host other Jet 14 regattas during the sailing season that all members of the Class Association and people wishing to learn more about sailing are welcome to attend.

Famous quotes containing the word jet:
“I cannot beat off
Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:
Be a man my son by God.
He turned again
To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
