Default J-Boats

Interesting,,,these j-80 's run 26 feet.they look like your average day sailer until you look close .
The 80 stands for the length of the boat: a J-80 is 8.0 meters long,,,or 26 feet .New ,they run about $36,000 and up.
I crew on one during July/early August each summer .
they love a 10 knot breeze or more and really move very quickly through the water
