Maiden Voyage
Saturday was the maiden voyage for J/70 No Quarter #781 at Fishing Bay Yacht Club for the Opening Day Regatta. After being launched and splashed with Coors Light the boat was rigged, sails raised and we headed out to join the 4 other J/70s and 26 total boats taking part in the Opening Day middle distance race finishing 4th among the J/70s.
The boat worked great – the crew performed admirably – one thing was clear – this skipper needs more time at the helm. I’m looking forward to many more J/70 races!
