Deck has carbon - E glass - CoreCell - vinylester laminate with gelcoat finish. Hull & deck laminates meet ABS offshore yacht standards to be CE Mark Certified for Europe.

E-glass - epoxy keel floors, mast step and longitudinal girder structural matrix molded using SCRIMP process and bonded and tabbed to hull with epoxy. o Five composite transverse bulkheads at forepeak, forward head, main bulkhead, aft settee, and aft berth area built with molded E-glass - foam core & reinforced w- unidirectional carbon. o Longitudinal hull stringers from forepeak bulkhead to main bulkhead P&S; from forepeak bulkhead to structural grid P&S. Two foredeck stringers from forward end of coach roof to forepeak bulkhead. Local reinforcements in way of high load areas. o Centerline stringer from structural grid to forepeak bulkhead incorporating mast step. o Dual longitudinal cockpit support bulkheads from transom to aft bulkheads. 

Hull - Structure - Bulkheads are assembled, tabbed, painted and oven post-cured together at a peak 140 degrees during a total 25 hour curing cycle. o Molded seahood with integral instrument pod curved acrylic slider and drop board sliding in extruded PVC rails and equipped with inside - outside stainless hasp and combination lock. o Two continuous ORC height toe-rails integrally molded with deck forward of mast.

Manufacturer Provided Description

The J-125 is a boat of exceptional stability and power. Her handling is explained by an extraordinary stability index of 143 degrees, with a stability curve ratio of positive to negative areas of 12.5:1. This greater stability is combined with a balanced hull-form with proper amounts of reserve buoyancy forward. This provides safer and more controllable high-speed planing offshore in large waves as well as a wider steering groove upwind for sustained peak performance by average helmsmen. No IMS rule-inspired hull form can match the high 4.72 length-to-beam ratio of this seakindly yacht, nor the reserve buoyancy designed into her bow sections. High length-to-beam ratio ensures straight tracking in rough seas and light steering loads. Sailboats with fine bows and full midship sections are more difficult to balance and more likely to spin out of control in big waves. As user-friendly as it may be, this is a sailing machine designed to be the fastest, best-built boat of its type in the world. A long-lasting, high-tech carbon - Kevlar - E-glass - epoxy laminate is the answer. TPI Composites is the world leader with its patented SCRIMP process. This yields a laminate that's been tested by the US Naval Surface Warfare Lab at double the strength of hand lay-up construction. SCRIMP overcomes long term ownership concerns about delamination and structural failure because there are no air-pockets in the hull laminate and integral keel beam grid. Secondly, the ratio of glass fiber to resin is 2:1 rather than 1:2, resulting in a strength-to-weight ratio that exceeds custom race-boat, pre-preg construction.
