J/36 Cruising from Mediterranean to United Kingdom

J/36 Jazz getting cleaned (Cornwall, England)-  Long distance cruiser Norman Curnow has provided us his latest update from cruising several thousand miles from the Med to England.  More often than not, Norm is single-handing his boat from port to port and occasionally brings along a friend or so for double-handing.

Said Norm recently, “just catching up with my J colleagues around the world.  My J/36 JAZZ (Rodney Johnstone’s original J/36) is back at her homeport after a 9,000 mile sail single-handed covering many places in and on the cost of Portugal, Spain and France.  She awaits 2015 for more racing at her club and homeport of Cornwall.  We are looking forward to some offshore racing with friends.  Here is a photo of JAZZ having her scrub off in the Tamarriver River after her trip back home!” All the best, Norman
