What happened? No media releases for over 7 years. I understand there was a J class boat regatta at the 2024 Americas Cup in Barcelona though no videos of the races☹️

Hmmm ..one of the guys saying the owners “ have done great things , employed lots of people …they’re used to winning …..they’ve won in life …” Hmm how do you “win” in life ? It sort of suggests that those of us mere mortals who aren’t billionaires have “ lost “ in life does it not? Unfortunate choice of words.

I have zero desire to race. My idea of pleasant sailing is entirely different. But it's undeniable that these J class yachts are the absolute pinnacle of elegance and beauty. If I was Bezos or one of these other mega rich people I'd have one built just to grace the earth. Forget the space dildos

They need to go back to the Js as the new America’s cup boats....these foiling things are the dumbest idea going, no tactics, why do they even need rules, there’s no close racing. No tacking duals...it’s boring....bring on the J boats

As A classic yacht admirer, Lovely to see the real classics Endeavor and Shamrock in the company of their newer sisters, I do seriously dislike the black sails on these magnificent designed hulls!? These Yachts became legendary in their portraits made by Beken of Cowes, when Egyptian cotton was the luxurious material to sport. Would You change the body of A classic blue Bugatti or A red Ferrari into A black carbon fiber?
@belledetector4 жыл бұрын
The competitive materials dictate the color. But I happen to agree with your aesthetic objections ;-)
@monsieurcommissaire1628 Жыл бұрын
The stunning Beken of Cowes photographs from the back in the day are lovely, but Egyptian Cotton is heavy sh- er, stuff, especially when it gets wet. Considering the size of a J's sails, using modern, lighter materials is understandable. I was just thinking that the Black Sails have a certain beauty of their own. I was pairing that thought with "aren't we lucky to have even one sailing example of this amazing class, but it seems there are at least five now." I'm confident that a photographer with sufficient artistic capabilities could discover beauty in the carbon black sails.

It’s too bad we didn’t get to see any racing of the J Class. Little snippets no more. Compared to Americas cup now these boats are very slow but they are beautiful and exciting to watch. I would have liked to seen some actual racing.
@snabelone5 жыл бұрын
I rather see an Americas cup class with these beautiful "Jays", than the vessels of today.. The catamarans nowadays can newer compete with these classic designs and not to forget what I would call true seamanship.

J class boats are THE sailing boats. They are fast, but not fastest. They are elegant and beautiful. More than 60 years ago I saw a picture of J class boats and felt that they were the sailing boats. The feeling is still alive.
