I don't think the life of a J/105 sailor is that intense--I mean--they get picked up at the "group home" by the short yellow bus--dropped off at the marina--play bumperboats all day--then hop back on the yellow bus home!

Not so tough!

That's a little harsh... they are responsinbe for remembering to bring thier own helmet too.

Are there any notable submerged rocks in WLIS left on Andiamo's hit list?

- Hens and Chickens check

- Big Tom check

- Gangway check

I guess the one in the middle of the approach to AYC should be scared

What about success rock? That one gets you bonus points being that it is mis-marked.

Hey at least there's better competition and far more boats in the 105 class than the cream puff division you race in.

Just sayin'

I am not sure there were that many more boats, maybe 1

Also not sure there is better competition, except for Eclipse the rest sucked, for the most part the rest of the fleet sails with the class 5 minutes behind them, I remember cross tacking with you guys the first day.

Just sayin'

Let me correct myself 6 minutes behind them

Why don't they just start you guys before the 105's? Would save you a lot of grief but there would be less to write about. Should try it one ragatta, might work. Of course, then you have to worry about lapping some boats.

I agree, I've been asking for that for years.

It really burns allot of your asses that I won a Rolex with a J/29, only paid 17,500 for it in 1991.

SUCKERS!!!!!
