* Dave Morgan, a J/29 owner in the northeast England- is the proud owner of SHOTGUN, a modified J29 that he bought 2003. According to Dave, "SHOTGUN has proved very successful racing the NE coast of the England/ Scotland. We won the 'Bell Rock' race hosted by Royal Tay Yacht Club near Dundee and we are regularly in the top 3 at East Coast Week regatta's held each year.
There are very few J29's in the UK, maybe only 3 or 4, so there is no class racing. However, we do rate very well under IRC - 0.9450 and compete very well in mixed handicap racing with good competition from Corby 29's, RO340's etc.
As you can see from the attached photos, I have fitted her out very comfortably so I can entertain and live aboard when necessary (we entertain a lot!). She is fitted with a 9 hp Volvo Saildrive Diesel with a folding Gori prop and her keel is a Steel/lead bulb Low Cg design. Much better performance than the original standard design! We are loving her! Hope you enjoy the photos." Regards, David Morgan
