J/80 results so far
2007:
RTI - a respectable 22nd out of 41 after having spent some considerable time
aground off Ryde...enough said...
Royal Southern July regatta - 1st overall against limited opposition
Cowes week - 3rd J/80 out of 15 and 5th overall out of 25 in SBR handicap class
Royal Southern September regatta - 4th overall and therefore
winner of the Summer Sportsboat series
Winter series - 6th overall. Too many crew changes ?
2008:
Spring series - 6th overall again. Downwind boat speed not so
great, and mark roundings dodgy at times, but starts and upwind speed good -
often in top 3 to first windward mark. A couple of very dubious protest
committee conclusions didn't help...
Royal Southern May regatta - Starting to get things together,
very poor starting but excellent upwind and downwind speed for a change. Crew
work and hence roundings looking very much better
RTI - Scratch crew, big waves and high speeds, 8th out of 24
entries
Royal Southern July regatta - 1st overall, even with Noah
(age 7) as 4th man on Sunday
