The J/130 is a light displacement design born of modern materials of exceptional strength and durability. She has (1) a very low center of gravity to achieve a high righting moment for good windward performance without crew on the rail; (2) a long waterline length to beam ratio for superb directional stability and safe tracking in large offshore seas; and (3) a generous sail area to wetted surface ratio for light air performance. Rod Johnstone designed her to be sailed by two people at racing speeds without sacrificing on-deck cruising comfort or shorthanded sailing systems. Belowdecks, J/130 is equipped for comfortable onboard living. Compare the velocity prediction of other boats you have known with the J/130. Then imagine how much more sailing you'll do with a J/130; how much more fun it will be to take out friends to experience the thrill of a fast boat that's safe and easy to manage; the sense of pride in owning a design of real beauty and functional elegance; the knowledge you've made a good investment in what really counts in sailing ... the sailing ... not a throwback to yesteryear requiring an engine for passage- making speeds, but a beautiful sailing vessel that harnesses the wind.
