The Grandeur Of the J Class returned last Sunday ,on the water of Dire Strait seven of these great America's Cup Vessel's returned to the grid .
Like ghosts of the past the J-Class haunted the SL Yacht & Sailing Clubs Inter club races again .
Once the focus of probably the most successful regatta in Secondlife the J-Class has a new addition Builder's Craig Ktana edition has some new additions like a WWC wind reading system a Multi sail package , Active Sonar and many updates to come . Thanks to Roan my right hand lady and all that came to watch was a great turn out and a fun day other than some crashes we endured SL was not freindly to us . Having spoke with LL the region will go back to a regular restart before our races on Sunday .

I have sailed this boat all week its a Complex yet easy boat to sail challenging every level sailor
I have tryed with all my might to crash this boat I can't this is far better a sail engine than any offered right now in second-life I dont know why we arent seeing it in more boats and races . This is a Realife sailing simulators version of a Great Cruiser class . Using WWC wind the old but completely re written Tako engine .

Inter club is Inter Fun Inter sharing and Interesting Next Week we return to historic racing of The New J boat offering J boats haven't been raced since our little infamous Jane Fossits J class regattas of years past probably one the best regattas ever in Secondlife when we didn't fight we sailed with crew and we always had a party at the end . Many of those those that had a hand in that are gone now . But will live in infamy on the waters of SL and the halls of our clubs on the walls and in the trophy cases there memories should never be forgot and never will . This one the grandest America,s Cup Class Yachts lives on today in SL and in RL. Some suggested it should be the next America's Cup Boat . for the 35th
I know somehow they will be included this cycle . The J Class Returns
