- Name: Captive Heart – J/27
Message: A sportive boat which will require a little more physical condition than other boats in heavy air.
The rating gives him as the fastest boat for the fleet as of today, so we have a position to keep.Couple videos to have an idea of the boat racing:

Crew
The goal is to build a crew to race for Yacht of the Year series in 2023 (Tuesdays, some Thursdays and Saturdays), and also racing beercan racing. There will be opportunities to cruise around too. We have a younger crew and a lot of fun on this fast boat.
The expectation would be to make 90% of the races for all the crew.
This boat sails with 5 to 7, 6 has been the most successful especially in heavy air.
Foredeck, Box, Port trim, Starboard trim, main, helm. Still couple positions opened and all experiences are welcome.Experience

Message: The hairy bear is looking for 1 to 2 people to crew on the boat. The ability to make 90% of the races a must. ASA certification will not be held against you. Bring your own beer. I buy appetizers for a double horn. You will learn the positions I need you for on the boat. Racing experience not necessary but appreciated. If you want to have fun and be competitive give me a call. Don’t bother emailing me. If you text me I might get back to you. And yes we are flying the spinnaker tonight.
