1998 J Boats J/120

SCAMP With her dark blue hull and rich wood interior is a must see if you are looking for a performance racer cruiser with easy handleing Asymmetrical spinnaker.

"Exceptional performance and construction earned J/120 the distinction of being CRUISING WORLD magazine's OVERALL BOAT OF THE YEAR and the BEST VALUE in a full-sized cruising boat".

"Downwind, it's a whole new world with an Asymmetric Spinnaker she'll do 7.2 knots at 150 degrees true wind angle in 10 knots of wind with a VMG of 6.3. Other cruisers might keep up if they used an engine. To jibe, simply let off one sheet and pull in the other. It's easier and  safer. One comer of the spinnaker (the "tack") is always secure to the bowsprit, eliminating wild oscillations. The center-of-effort is located further forward and lower. Meaning balanced, "finger-tip" control rather than "white knuckled" round-up broaches. The asymmetric's greater power drives the apparent wind 30-50 degrees forward of the true wind angle. In light air and lumpy seas, the sail's greater area acts as a stabilizer. Deep sailing angles (165 degrees True Wind Angle) can be achieved by easing the sheet to project the luff to windward - as if it were pulled aft by a spinnaker pole".

Scamp has a great sail inventory and has been very well maintained to ensure many more years of racing and cruising. The interior is classic J boat with clean lines and beautiful woodwork.
