Lucky Dog, the good thing for you is that you only need to get lucky once. Then you give yourself a good licking where it counts, and you can forget about everything else that has happened and boast about thing that can and will never happen. It must be a nice to live in a world without a hint of reality and to have the ability to revise history to fit your likes. If you would stop licking yourself long enough to take a look around you may notice that what you beating on is not a J/30. It isn’t even a boat. You have only sailed against four maybe five J/30, and you only have a winning record against one. And that’s not crack smoke. It’s diesel fumes. That’s not pudding. It's your ... One Design means that ALL the boats are the same design. You don’t get to win just because you got your conditions. It involves the skill of the people on the boats. When it blows 15, there are usually waves. You have to go to a blade at 15? I wouldn’t brag about that. Try hiking a little. I could go on and on because the scope of what you don’t know about sailing and the rest of the world is boundless. BTW did you ever figure out how to use a vang on a fractional rig? How about that back stay? Of course not, you are the PHRF wanksta. Now quit pissing on the carpet, go fetch the paper, and stop humping your heros and licking yourself in public.
