The J/120 is an award winning and very succesfull design of the famous American J-Boats yard. She is very fast, though easy to handle because of the retractable carbon bowsprit for downwind sails, her clever decklayout and deep and safe cockpit.

Uncommon for very fast, planing hulls the J 120 behaves very kindly in waves and chop, which is even further improved by the lightweight carbon mast, increasing righting moment.

She a an absolute joy to sail. Reacting on every change in sailtrim, gentle and forgiven on the helm and planing with boatspeeds over 14 knots, the J-120 pleases sailors with
all levels of experience.
