The Seattle gang are having fun, too, and have posted a few videos worth
watching. Here's their description of their J/70 sailing experiences:
"These were taken (with a GoPro) from this past weekend’s PSSC up in
Seattle, where surprisingly enough we actually had some fairly serious
winds; at least we did on Saturday. This is our downwind leg, we set a
new personal speed record of 16.1 on this leg!!
