* The J/125 TIMESHAVER sailed by "Viggo and the boys" had
one remarkable trip from SoCal to PV in the latest edition of the San
Diego to Puerto Vallarta Race to Mexico. For a few days, they "sent
it", or as some Volvo guys keep referring to, they kept "sending it down
the mineshaft". A reference to going so fast, so far down the face of
huge waves you simply bury the bow into the wave front-wall in front of
you and keep submarining! The J/125, thankfully, has a bit more
reserved buoyancy in the bow to keep it rolling along on a screaming
plane in even the craziest of sailing conditions offshore-- not our
view, but the perspective of dozens of offshore sailors who've grown to
love the sailing properties of another "classic" high-performance
J/Boat. The J/125 has perhaps achieved some degree of "legendary"
status for being a boat you can push forever and it just keeps on
forgiving you with yet another burst over another wave to blast along at
20+ knots without crashing! You'll enjoy this video from the J/125
TIMESHAVER gang that just wouldn't call it quits. See
