The J30 is a slug upwind on the
typical 10kt day with leftover chop.

Bwahahahahaha!!!!

Tell me what you don't know? About high tech sails? High tech light weight
rigging? A worked hull-penalty!? How about solid vangs? Upgraded blocks and
track?

As I figured. Once again you prove you know nothing about boats and in this
instance the J30. Half the stuff you mentioned is not permitted by the class
rules. You fell into my trap Boobie. There's not much to "trick out" on a
J30. Back to the matrix!

,,About high tech sails?

****Class rules spec Dacron main.

,,,Upgraded blocks and track?.

****Can't change factory tracks Boobie.

High tech light weight rigging?

****I'm sure if I address this you'll say you ment running rigging so I'll give
you that one.

accomplishes anything.

Your backpeddling Boobie. You said "hi tech" not racng. When it comes to
sails "hi tech" means carbon, Kevlar, PBO or some other exotic laminate.

I would say that's probably true dimwit. I just bought a new tri radial main
using Dimension's new Square weave Dacron cloth. I wouldn't really call it "hi
tech" I have a Kevlar pinstripe 155% Dacron genoa. I wouldn't call that "hi
tech" either. Once again "hi tech" would be Carbon or PBO these days.

Old tracks bind and are over worn. New tracks have smooth running cars and
such, for quick and such. Why wouldn't you change old tracks for newer,
especially when your going to race and need things to work smoothly?

Great attempt. I've never seen sliding pin hole type tracks wear out. Anyone?

Christ your killing me. So a new Pentex crosscut main is high tech but a 2
year old PBO tri radial is not?

using Dimension's new Square weave Dacron cloth.

I see. That must be a low tech new square weave dacron sail. It wasn't designed
using the latest computer software. It wasn't cut using the latest sail
building systems.
It's a "low tech" sail, right Loco!!???

Bwahahahahahaa!

In the grand scheme of things that's correct. You got one right.

Duh dummy..... wrong again. One wouldn't be high tech and the other wouldn't
be allowed.

Within the confines of allowable sails, the newly cut sail, using the lastest
technology IS high tech.
It's english, Loco. Sorry.

LOL......... Stop your killing me. Your the idiot who claims anything "modern"
is hi tech. That's not what the rest of the world considers hi tech. But then
that goes along with your definition that "tricked out" means doing repairs.

Right, but that was just one item. Please explain where you arrived at your
generalized comment.
Also: Still waiting for the "new" definition of High tech.

You can argue with dictionarys until you turn blue. If your toaster is like
mine...digital temp. control, feedback timer...then it's high tech. It's not
about what's it's made from in every case, Loco. Certainly not with sails.

That's ok, then. You can't help other people's bad taste in presents. Too bad they didn't give you a gift receipt so you could
trade it in for a lifetime's supply of real toasters.

It's a hell of a toaster over, built to last. It's quite nice actually, though
I'd never spend $200 on a toaster myself.
