"Maxprop" wrote in message k.net... "Ringmaster" wrote in message oups.com.. .. Congrats. I've always heard nothing but good things about J33s. The only thing negative I've heard about them is that they're substantially slower than a Beneteau 35s5. Only while pointing. |

John Cairns Hey, somebody who posts here has actually been doing some sailing? Congrats, probably a very competitive field. Frank Yeah, the big boats are semi-professionally crewed, got guys from NZ and OZ sailing on them. A small boat could conceivably win overall, under the right circumstances, but I'm willing to bet it hasn't happened in a very long time. Finishing 14th overall with the1st in our division feels absolutely unreal. Thanks, and yeah, it was actually sailing, the boat will end up with over 500 miles in long distance races this year. I hear a new record was set by the winner. Well Done John. Joe John Cairns |

Did you beat Night Ops and Racer-X boat-for boat? That's mean! DSK Not both. Night Ops is a "D" class, we beat four of those guys outright, corrected over all of them. Racer X is a "G" boat, the give us fits Wednesay night, we beat them outright by about 2 hours and corrected over them by 1-1/2 hours. The boat that took 13th from us was another G boat, we beat them by 23 minutes, they corrected over us by 42 minutes. Aside from Collina, the G boat, everyone else is in the "I have a big ass racing yacht category" , Santa Cruz 70's, GL 70's, Andrews 68, and several Transpac 52's. We actually rounded the mark at Southampton with one of the Transpacs, and beat one of the A boats corrected, a Nelson/Marek 68. John Cairns |
