J/30 Class Association Forums J/30 Forum The Boat, Sails and Equipment J-30 Nova Scotia

I'm looking at purchasing a J-30 and I have done all the research short of sailing one. I am hoping that someone in NS might be kind enough to alowme to join them on a sail. Any opportunity would be greatly appreciated.

If you are able to come to Prince Edward Island , I would be glad to take you sailing on my J30 Silver Shadow.I`m in Montague,only 20 min. from the ferry to Nova Scotia.My new address is sunsetcove@islandtelecom.com .The J30 is a great all around sailboat,fun to race and great to cruise.

I`m assuming NS means Nova Scotia,Canada.But maybe if there is another NS then you are still welcome to come to the greatest sailing area on the eastern seaboard.Can you imagine?

Clive, I sent you an e-mail, im not sure if you had gotte it or not. I'm hoping that one of the local ie. Halifax / Chester owners see's this for the timing. However, I will be in Pictou Monday Sept 9th and if you were available would just pop across on the ferry. My e-mail is mbrunt@birdstairs.ca Thank you again for the offer.

Nova Scotia it is,Not too observent ,am I, eh! I moved up from Ranger 26, and a Tanzer 26 before that. As far as being tender goes, it is not a concern unless you are racing.A great cruising boat,safe and quick and real easy to sail.Main alone in a breeze,just like a Lazer,that easy.But you got to be strong and alert.Where abouts in NS are you located and which J 30 are you interested in buying.I got mine in Chester area about 6 or 7 years ago.Good luck, have fun, and contact me any time.I`m like you, I got lots of info before I bought it and haven`t regetted it once.Send me your email.My work email is clive@bradoliver.pe.ca
Regards

Take a look at the owners' directory on the front page of the web site. Then, do a search on "NS Canada" for the site. I think we've got about a half dozen in your province.
