Default Inexpensive sails - Ole Thom.

They're
missing so much and don't even realize it. At least you can say,
"Been there done that!" all Booby and his like can say is "Duh!"

Yeah...the J24 I'm sailing this week Thursday probably has furling!

Bwahahaha!

J/24's usually carry a four-man crew when racing.

Are you gonna get an exemption to allow only a two-man
crew so the boat isn't handicapped with 300 pounds too
much weight?

RB,

I'm sure you screwed yourself once again.
A J24 racing in class with full crew (or without) isn't going to be
using a furler. Bob, A flying sail change cannot be made with a furler
and Class Racers do have to be able to change out head sail as
conditions warrant.

They do use twin head tracks but a furler has the upper assembly that
prohibits the changing a sail while the other sail is up.

Changing head sails in class racing doesn't make since to be bald headed
for a head sail change.

You're going to have to modify your statement about a racing J24.

Sorry, Nutsy. You had your mouth going without the brain in gear.

Uh, Thom. I think you misread something. I'm not racing on the J-24, nor have I
EVER seen one with a RF installed.

Nutsy,

Your post @ 9/1/03 said the J24 I'm sailing Thursday prodably has RF. If
you've never seen one installed then why in the hell would you make a
statement like that?

So now, is this the time for the stupid modifying troll replies? If it
is, don't bother on my account, I won't be reading your replies for
awhile.
AND; "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!"

OT

Thing is Billy, the notes he was taking were so he'd remember your
comments.

Don't forget, Ozzy...Billy Jane sails a serious racing machine...the C&C 27.
