The J109 is a fantastic racer - cruiser competitive across all wind ranges they are super stable in big breeze which allows you to drive the boat hard even when the puffs are above 20 knots. Come on board Bottom up Boats J109 "Going to Red" in race 1 of the Quoile 2 day regatta as we blast across the bottom reach at over 9 knots. With the A4 setting perfectly the crew are in complete control of the IRC 1 race. The crew is working perfectly to keep the boat flat and fast while setting up for the drop at kite at the bottom mark. The kite trimmer was making life easy for the skipper while keeping the boat at top speed, easing the kite into the puffs and trimming perfectly as the apparent wind moves forward as the boat speed build. Well done to the Redline Racing team who over came a few issue in race 2 to finish with 2 bullets after the first day Thank to the Quoile Yacht club located on the western shores of strangford lough for putting on a great day of racing. Look for more of the same tomorrow ........
In August 2021 I plan to sail solo, non-stop, unassisted around the world from Ireland back to Ireland via the 5 great capes, I will be using a sextant and paper charts as my primary navigation tools. If I am successful, I will be the first Irish person to complete a solo non-stop circumnavigation of the world. I estimate the trip will take approximately 8 months nonstop. My yacht Waxwing is a Rival 41. The entire trip will be recorded and documented from start to finish. From preparation of Waxing to upgrades, fitting new equipment, sea trials and then the trip itself. I have been working non-stop on this project for two years. Preparing waxwing for the circumnavigation. I have waxwing almost ready and will be showing you all of my updates on my channel. I will also have a live tracker for people to follow my position and progress live, this will be available to view as soon as I set sail. https://www.peterlawlesssolocircumnavigation.com/
