J/30 Class Association Forums J/30 Forum The Smack Initial PHRF Test 49er sailboat vs J30

So OK ... I guess you really spoiled it for me ... I'm scheduled to get a test run when they return to Naples in Oct. But I'm in no shape to pop on and off anything ... maybe if they tie me on... right near the mast and don't turtle it. Duh... Shake a leg for senior sailors ... Water temp should be in the mid 80s around then.

here are two more photos taken during the regatta by Jack Sullivan of Hamilton Harbor YC. The 9 Melges 24s were a little put off when it blew past them on their course.

Erik the driver said his job is ok for a girl, but he never saw a gal able to crew well. Makes sense they downsized it in the 29er.
