This classic J80 has been raced competitively both nationally and locally. The high stability (lead keel) and built in buoyancy give her a CE Category B (offshore) classification. She is an ISAF (International Sailing Federation / World Sailing) One Design - the J80 has its own class at many regattas around the UK. Delightfully easy to sail - yet capable of 18 knots on a breezy day. The vendor reports her to be in very good condition for her age.This classic J80 has been raced competitively both nationally and locally.
