I find that hard to believe since the entire world says the J35 is
the
perfect boat. Can't imagine any J35 owner saying that.


The J35 is a great boat, but not a great choice for family sailing.
The 35s5 is a great family boat and like the J35 was popular and still
is today. You own an unpopular boat that died on the vine and a lot of
folks never heard of. It's not a great race boat, nor is it a good
family boat. It's nothing more than a quick beer-can racer. If my
funds were very limited and I wanted to race handicap I'd find a
Santana 30/30, which is quicker than the Express and more fun.

Sorry. That's the fact.
