* From our J sailing community
Down Under, we recently got a nice note from
Mark Rhodes in Sydney Harbour. Mark commented, "I have owned my
J/24, JAYTRIPPER (seen right under shadow of Sydney Harbour Bridge), for almost 17 years and have enjoyed every minute of it. We race with
Greenwich Flying Squadron,
a great little boatshed nestled into a little bay west of Sydney
Harbour Bridge. If you are curious have a look at our website
http://www.gfs.org.au and check out our gallery for photos and Youtube videos.
You
will see our J/24s racing in White Division on Wednesday twilights. As
well as a handicap series the J/24s have their own trophy based on
scratch results so the 8 boats can also enjoy one design competition.
We also have two J/122s and a J/35 in Blue Division and a J/80 in
Yellow. I think we also have a J/92s that races occasionally. Thanks
again for a great newsletter, Regards, Mark Rhodes".
