Default Dire Yank boats

You gotta get out more often. I think J has sold a couple of boats in Europe.
In fact the new J109 was introduced there a couple of years ago. I also think
a few 1D35, MUMM 30, Farr, Melges, Sabre boats have been sold there.

I've seen it. It is almost as fast as my boat , but it feels very
basic(cheap??) down below.

I haven't heard of the 1D35, but I was under the impression that the Melges
was a European boat. However, I did a Google, and it looks like I was
wrong. I found this:-

I *reeeally* like the first two sailing photos on that page!

That's the way all J Boats look.

Can't believe you havent heard of the 1D35 (read one design thirty five) They
are pretty popular world wide and built in the states by Carroll Marine. And I
thought everyone knew that Buddy Melges, famous America's Cub skipper, ice boat
designer, sailmaker etc from Wisconsin was behind the Melges 24 and 30. The 30
was a flop.
