J/30 Class Association Forums J/30 Forum The Boat, Sails and Equipment deck paint

Taylor's going to be in charge of foredeck NEXT winter when he is 13 ... meanwhile he is being taught by Randy who is bringing along his visiting 12 year old grandson tomorrow.

we'll see how two 12 year olds handle the foredeck .... wind to be ~10 out of the south.

Granddad Randy really did appreciate Interdeck with 4 oz of silicon dioxide extra added in per quart for the foredeck. minor paint scrapes from the pole, but easily touched up. He felt 20 years younger.

One of the Spin A boats ... a Soverel 33 ... has a 14 year old on foredeck [photo] ... I think the kids down here ... the few that we have ... get way more time on the water than up North. they both came out of the local Opti program. I tried to get a trade with TWO 60yearolds for this one 14. but the skipper just laughed at me.
