Back of a t-shirt showing the active Irish fleet of J24s in 2004 on their 25th anniversary. 27 took part in the Irish nationals that year.
Only about three of these are still active (notwithstanding name changes that I'm unaware of):
Crazy Horse
Hard on Port
Kilcullen
Four or five others are 'around' but do not compete anymore.
The fleet is very strong (current world champion and triple European open champion) with some great recent additions but it's certainly shrinking...

Love the decal (HUN 5269). Weigh-in at the 2018 worlds, where it came 69th 0f 89.

Is this suitable for rucking?
I bought this a few years ago (it's 5.11 ALL HAZARDS NITRO 21L) for general use. I had to lose some KGs quickly over the summer for an event so I loaded this with 11KGs and was really impressed with the result. I love walking.
However, I feel the weight sits too low in this bag (mid to lower back). Should I invest in a different one or is there a way I can adapt this one to make it work for me?

A Father-daughter moment: downwind spin home after a race at the 2018 Worlds in Garda (Italy).

A J24 s/r
Hello fellow sailors.
I created a subreddit a while back that focuses specifically on J24 sailing/racing.
It'd be great to hear from fellow J24 sailors whatever your role aboard or wherever you're located - to share tips, experiences, media, etc.

Amazing what you can do with a very cheap and old GoPro (Hero Session 4) and some minimum PP.

A good push pit mounted cam that tracks course and speed too (J24)
We used to use a GoPro that captured the images and video really well but another boat in our fleet posted videos on YouTube of a similar setup using what I think was a Garmin Vibe 30 (I might have the model wrong) and that camera tracked course and speed etc which made post-race viewing much more interesting. Anyone used this or is there another similar one out there?

Anyone sailed/raced in the Trelleborg area in Sweden?
I have an event there in August and was wondering if anyone here know what it's like to sail in that area.
