Ma Jolie Boat | 40' J Boats 1996

New to the market in San Diego, California

The 1996 J/120 is a well-regarded racer/cruiser known for its performance and comfortable cruising accommodations, praised for its balance between speed and comfort, and its ability to be sailed effectively by a couple.

Design and Performance:
- The J/120 is a 40-foot sloop designed by Rod Johnstone, known for its performance and cruising capabilities.
- It's designed to be a fast cruiser for a couple, but also a competitive racer.
- The hull shape is described as moderate, with a broad bow, allowing the boat to be driven hard on reaches and in heavy air downwind.
- The boat has a light but well-built hull, powerful and easily managed sails, and a responsive helm.
- The cockpit is designed for convenience of steering and sail handling, with a big wheel and semi-balanced rudder.
- The J/120 can reach speeds in the mid-teens with a full crew and the right conditions, and can sail well with a mainsail alone, or with a mainsail and a small jib.
Interior and Comfort:
- The interior layout is fairly simple, with a good-sized galley, a spacious head, an aft cabin, and good storage.
- The boat has a focus on function and form over styling statements.
- Moving around the boat is easy, with handholds and foot braces in strategic locations.
- The winch placements are logical, and the wide side decks have good non-skid.
Construction:
- The J/120 is built with high-quality materials, including a high-quality SCRIMP balsa-core laminate construction with 65-70% glass content.
- The hull is molded with a resin-infusion process, using vacuum bagging and resin injection, to achieve a glass-to-resin ratio of 65 to 70 percent and minimal environmental impact during construction.
Key Features:
- The J/120 is known for its ability to sail short-handed.
- It has a retractable carbon-fiber J/Sprit for flying an asymmetrical spinnaker, which can be operated from the cockpit.
- Jibing is easy, requiring only letting go the old sheet and pulling in the new one.
Awards and Recognition:
- The J/120 was named Cruising World Magazine's Overall Boat-of-the-Year and Best Value in a Full-Size Cruiser.
Overall:
- The J/120 is a well-regarded racer/cruiser that offers a good balance between speed and comfort, making it suitable for both racing and cruising.
- It's a boat that sacrifices very little speed when compared to stripped-out racing machines, yet offers accommodations suitable for cruising comfor
