Default Never run downwind?

,Just as I thought. You know nothing about the J30. Here's a primer for ya.
http://www.j30.org/
The J30 is far and away more popular than your boat and actually get's one
design races going. As a racer it even has a proper tiller and more tunable
fractional rig.

Poor attempt at evading the subject. As usual you failed to answer the
question that was asked. I'll ask again. What is a "tricked out" J30. I'll
be waiting again.
To address your irrelevant points however it is more popular in some areas
because of the one design aspect. More tunable? Don't think so. Maybe not
even more adjustable since the Express has inline shrouds, a babystay and an
adjustable backstay. It might be more bendable. I'll take a masthead boat in
average North American wind conditions anyday. The J30 is a slug upwind on the
typical 10kt day with leftover chop.
Now please post what a "tricked out" J30 is and not some wasted link that
doe not answer the question.
