Looking for a a couple of J30 crew who are still in shape.
Vee Jay does not do Bloody/Black&Blue.
Just simple controlled chaos.

Mid week we do practice spin runs ... we will put a bunch of old guys together to take you out on a spin run or two. Leave city dock at noon back at 4+ ... plenty of time for you to do "other" stuff. And we don't get too tired that way.

We like to fly Xmas spin along the beach depending on where the wind is .... probably out of East ... sort of beam reach from Dr. Pass to Gordon. but we have another half dozen colorful class illegal spins to choose from. Duh ... old guys like colorful spins.

Takes about 35 min to run the Gordon River each way ... then up wind in the Gulf, spin, and back up the river. One can of beer allowed after spin is down ... normally Ice to get a decent buzz.

If you are really good ... may talk Dave into taking you out on a hollowed out Wavelength 30 sort of similar to a J29 in phrf.

Hey guys... I have a jaunt to the west coast over Thanksgiving. Would love to get together, even if only for a cocktail. We are racing here in Miami every weekend through then... its only 150 miles?!? Hey Dave, we could meet in the middle!

Like today ... Vee Jay is planning a spin run every day over Thanksgiving weekend except turkey day. Although based on today's performance by a few of my crew ... it might seem more like a visit to a nursing home. Did get up to 7.5+ with the Xmas Spin, however -- with a puffy 15+ wind out of the NE.

Took 5 guys to drop and pack the blade into a zipper bag ... duh and double duh ... entertaining. Well OK ... they really are roller furling guys. Standard program is out of City Dock at noon, back by 4-4:30.

By the way the Redhead is pulling your leg ... The only thing in the middle of FL here is alligators.
