Great stuff Ray! I love, love, love that J boat, makes my peepee tingle. Poor Beau Geste, perhaps they should change it to Faux Pas and end the renaming ceremony at the middle part.sigpic

So below is a shot of my Lightning. It's a 19 ft. hard chined racing dingy designed by Olin Stephans in 1938. They displace about 700 lbs and have a fractional rig with a symmetrical spinnaker. Our boat, hull #12871, was built in 1976 is still actively raced in the Denver Sailing Association. It's a very active and well-funded class.
Mountain sailing is fun..but gnarly. Sudden wind shifts of 30-90 degrees are common. The Aspen Open regatta is held every July at Rudi Reservoir in CO. If you ever get the chance to get up there, do. It's gorgeous, and we've had some of our best weekends there. The sailing is exciting as well.
Two years ago were coming in hot to the leeward mark and noticed that every laser in the race was capsizing down there. A quick check of the weather around us indicated the afternoon storms were filling in from opposite ends of the lake, causing a mild corkscrew effect. As we flawlessly and wordlessly executed a quick tack/gibe, tack/gibe (in effect executing a 720 spin), we made and end run around the fleet to win the race. Working together with that kind of intuition is an incredible feeling.
Here's a shot from the spring regatta in Denver at Cherry Creek Res.sigpic
