    Hi Paul! I hope everything is Ok! I have been trying to get in touch with you by email. Maybe my emails end up in your spam folder?!

    All the best!

    Hey Paul!

    Thank you, it would be amazing! I have been thinking about a Freedom cat ketch conversion since I first stumbled on a review of that boat!

    I am going to contact you straight away!

    Hey Domenico,

    I sail out of Marconi Sailing Club in Essex. My current boat is a Junk Rigged Freedom 33 Cat Ketch. I’d be happy to take you for a sail so you could get a taste of Junk Rig if diaries worked out.

    My details are in my profile

    cheers

    Paul

    if you go to Directories/Sailing Services, in the Members' Area, you will see a link to members who have volunteered to offer people junk rig experience.  Like many features that aren't on the home page, this is a much neglected feature; that being so, I'm not sure how up-to-date it is, but it might be worth a try. 

    A lot of members rarely use the website, because it's not at all user-friendly if you generally browse with a mobile phone, so it's worth contacting them directly, as they may well not see this post.

    Hi everyone!

    My name is Domenico and I joined the JRA a couple of years ago!

    At the time I was planning to concert a GP14 so that I could enjoy the junk rig experience first hand! But life had other plans!

    I have been dreaming about sailing since young age but I managed to put it into practice only intermittently in the last 5-6 years and mostly on dinghies.

    I am planning to buy my own boat as soon as I can but in the meanwhile i am wondering....is there any kind sailor in the south eat of England willing to give me the first taste of the real deal?

    Fair winds!

    Domenico
