Here's a shot of the J24 I raced on in the Winter Series - gorgeous day but a bit too much wind at times!

Hi Derek,

Does that J-24 have an outboard on the transom? I can't tell ...

Merry Christmas!

The J's sail in and out of their slips and leave the ob's on the dock here in Wichita.

Successfully sailed my 30 into it's slip once...at 3am after a precautionary engine shutdown earlier in the day in the middle of Lake Erie....(Roll up the jib, let go the vang, sail it like a dinghy.)

Our J22's and J24's never carry outboards - they sail away from the launch ramp! They take a 6 sec hit on their rating if not racing one design.

I have yet to see a photo of a boat that doesn't have some sort of beauty, even a motor boat. But the J 24 to my eye is exceptional. Almost as nice as a Catalina.

My slip is a good way down a cove...no way you can get in and out without a motor. If the wind is just right, you may get out (or in), but once out (or in), if the wind stays the same, you can't go the other way.
