A J Boat is one of the older America's cup yachts, used before they
became too expensive and switched to 12 meters.  The Ranger was an
American J boat and the Shamrocks were several J boats owned by Sir
Thomas Lipton.  These are probably before your time as they are pre-WWII
boats.  I go back a long way. :)  Started model plane building when
rubber band power was very popular and gas engines were very scarce and
r/c was not hardly a dream.  I saw my first r/c planes during the war
when they were used as anti-aircraft gunnery targets.  Couldn't get over
the fact that they could fly a model with a wingspan of about 10 feet.
I was used to a maximum of about four.

Thanks for the advice.  I may be able to use it.
