Cool Interview with J/70 HESTIA Owner Jim Murray from Chicago

(Fort Worth, Texas)- After winning the first USA J/70 Nationals on HESTIA, Jim Murry was interviewed about why he loves sailing and why, in particular, he loves sailing in the International J/70 Class around the world.

He describes what it means to keep sailing lighthearted and competitive in the competitive J/70 class. Sailing with a “one pro” setup, HESTIA took on some of the toughest competition in the sport, holding strong by prioritizing enjoyment on the water.

Murray shared, “We’re lucky just to be able to go sailing… we try to focus less on the outcome and more just on the vibe.” This uplifting mindset has brought Murray, Zeke Horowitz, Will Howard, and Steven Leuck to the top. Cheers to HESTIA for keeping the adventure alive!
