The design of the hull lines of J8 was originally from the legendary boards of Frank C. Paine. Paine is famous for his 1930 J-class yacht Yankee that was modified and updated in 1934 and the only J that could compete against the considerably longer waterline Super Js'. The lines plan shows that Paine designed J8 with an 88 ft original waterline length, a foot longer than any other J ever designed. He intended to accept a penalty on sail area for waterline length, which was quite radical in those days. The handicap system that is used nowadays is totally different but history has proven that waterline length is crucial in these designs. Read more: https://www.hoekdesign.com/yacht/j8-topaz

The weatherman played a trick on us. Yesterday's forecast of clear skies for this evening's trip never materialized. Instead, grey skies blew in on the southeast wind. But no matter! We sailed out close-haul past the Shagwong buoy then enjoyed the long downhill slide back to Culloden Point and around into Fort Pond Bay.
