hi Brian,
Great to hear another j-30 is coming to the area. In the Boston vacinity we have about 6 active racers and 6-8 boats that cruise etc. As for moorings, Brewers yacht yard took over Hawthorne cove and they have about 200 moorings for rent, I do not know if launch service is included in the price. Also on the Marblehead side of Salem Harbor there is Midharbor marine, They have a website (do not know the web address). They sell, rent, service moorings and provide a launch service. As for prices I do not know that. There are some clubs around in Marblehead THe Boston, Marblehead yacht club, Eastern and Corinthian. In Salem Palmers Cove yacht Club, Salem Willows. In Beverly the Jubilee Yacht club. We race thursday nights with the Jubilee Yacht club(wed is non-spin, thursday spins). Also we have a class at the Nood regatta and are trying to get some more OD events in the region. Any more questions my number 978-590-7074. I have to admitt what a week to move here. possible snow storm sun/ monday. Where did you sail in New York. I grew up sailing on the Great South Bay.
