J109 Going to Red blasting downwind at over 12 knots with the wind gusting to 35 knots. We the bow wave breaking back behind the spreaders it was all hands to the back of the bus as we blasted across a tight reach. The 35 knot puff which hit us just before this laid us flat for 20 second and also most dumped out bow man over the side. There was quite a bit of yelling and screaming required to get the messages from the front of the boat to the back and visa versa. With the kite finally making it to the top of the mast and a couple of the crew hitting the rail we set of to catch the race leader who was not brave enough to fly the kite as the breeze built as the low pressure cell moved over northern Ireland and and built the breeze to over 35 knots. The J109 is a a great ocean going yacht which is stable and responsive even in the biggest of breezes. The team at Bottom up boats hopes you enjoyed this short video of us flying up Strangford Lough on the way to round island
Die Mittwochsregatta am 19.06.2024 fand zeitgleich mit dem Länderspiel von Deutschland gegen Ungarn statt. Der Beteiligung der Segler tat das keinen Abbruch. Der Wind wehte aus nordwestlicher Richtung, im Bereich von 20 Knoten. Wer mutig genug war, den Genaker zu ziehen konnte die Wellen herunter surfen wie hier J-88 Nemo und XP-38 Roxy. Nächste Woche gibt es nochmal eine Wettfahrt vor der Sommerpause aufgrund der Warnemünder Woche. Wir sehen uns.
Prepare to take the on-the-water certification in Spring 2024 at https://asa.com/online-class/asa-102/. For the last 40 years, there has been a curious hole in the ASA curriculum, with ASA 101 leading directly into ASA 103. This spring, our schools will start teaching our exciting new course, ASA 102: Keelboat 2. This course is for any sailor interested in building their core sailing skills. This includes becoming more proficient at sail trim and close-quarter maneuvering. It also includes improving your crew skills and working together as a team to make your vessel move more efficiently through the water.
