(New Orleans, LA)- The J/30s continue to have fun as a class. Quite
remarkable to see a fun-loving group of people enjoy what has become a
"classic" 30 footer in the J stable of sailboats alongside the J/24,
J/22, J/29, J/27, J/36 and other 30+ year-old designs from the boards of
design and engineering in Stonington, CT and Newport, RI. J/30 owners,
like their class brothers, have enjoyed an on-going roller-coaster of
"love" from fellow sailors in the sailing world. Suffice it to say, the
J/30 sailors know how to have a great time --- the socializing amongst
the sailors is legendary. No questions asked. Sailing regattas from
Long Island Sound, to the Chesapeake, to the Great Lakes to No'Leans on
the granddaddy of shallow lakes- Lake Ponchartrain, it's pretty clear
the J/30 crew are enjoying sailing their fast, comfortable steeds and,
perhaps most importantly, bring hundreds of their buddies, family and
otherwise to join in on the fun!
In
keeping with the spirit of the class, fellow J sailors and others might
be amused by the fun-loving camaraderie these J/30 sailors are having.
The videos are totally "tongue-in-cheek", "off-the-wall" and above all
"entertaining". Sailing should ALWAYS be this much fun. :)
