White-Star is a J-34 IOR sailing out of North Flathead Yacht Club on beautiful Flathead lake in Somers Montana.
It's great when summer roles around in our little corner of heaven.
Racing on White-Star really makes for an exciting summer.
We are off to a good start this year.
This year we have added several key team members that are working hard to learn the ropes (Sheets and Lines) If your interested in giving it a try, go to the crew signup page or send us an e-mail and let us know.
The big news for the year has to be that we traded White-Star for a FARR 37. We will continue to race White-Star until the Farr is ready to go probably some time in late July. It will be really hard to see someone else racing White-Star. She has been a great boat and we have gained a lot of experience and knowledge during the years we sailed her. White-Star always gets a lot of comments from everyone that sees her. She is always in good shape and looked like she means business. People walking down the dock constantly comment, "She really looks fast", or "That boat really has nice lines." The J/34 is without a doubt the best looking boat ever to come from JBoats .
If you own a J/34 or know some one that does, please drop us a e-mail we would love to hear from you! We have added a new page under the boat menu called Other J 34 Owners, where we are keeping a list of the J 34 Owners that we know about, along with links to their sites, and pictures of their boats. I would like to eventually complete the list will all the owners and add perhaps add a tips section, maintenance issues, and whatever else might be fun or helpful. There are only 25 of these boats out there, but it might be fun to have a J 34 Class association! Let me know what you think. I'll need something to do over the winter while White-Star rests.
North Flathead Yacht Club completed the new docks last year and is an amazing place to see now. We have water and power to the slips, along with great new environmentally friendly lighting. The new breakwater works superb, even in the worst storms the boats ride comfortably in their slips.
