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 ........

What Our Boat Looks Like During Our Lithium Battery Install! After our first day working with @cruisingmaya, our boat is a construction zone! We hired Mack, who is an ABYC technician with an electrical engineering background to help with our lithium battery install. WOW! What a task. We are new sailors and we chose lithium batteries, as they pack a lot of amp hours into a small space, charge quickly and last for a long time. If you dig our journey, we would love you to join us on our blog: https://gypseaexplorer.com/ Or on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/writerjacks/ Cheers!
