That's right Joe, the Brit's community was very helpful indeed, and even dug up the photo and reposted it to make things clear for me! It's a sea going nation, you can tell from their experience. Their best advice however was to avoid falling dry in the first place and go for a visitor's mooring. If no other option, drying out preferably against a fixed construction, like a harbour wall. I'm planning a 10 day trip in the English Channel (the French call it equally theirs) an North Sea, don't know yet wether I'll end up in France, UK or the Netherlands (they're all within a 50 mile distance, nothing like the distances you guys seem to be talking about), that will depend on the weather and circumstances. I'll definitely post a picture, and who knows, one of a J27 proudly taking the 'glorious mud', as the Brits insist on naming their uncovered national waters ... Joe, let me thank you and all the others again for the helpful advice I find on your user community. Jan.

I had a feeling you would find the info you needed. Keep us posted on your success and by all means show us some photos of your boat dried out!

Just a single piece of wood supporting the bow. Sorry, I don’t have the author, but it was from the Jaguar Group on Yahoo.

Do you have more precise info about who, what and whereabouts?

First there is a Jaguar Yahoo group, I am betting one of the Britts will know. I saw a picture of a Jag 27 that had done just that. It was leaning against a quay (wall) and the skipper had carefully placed a post under the bow and one under the stern to keep her upright in addition to the much needed fenders along the side.
