2007 J Boats J/105

Alameda, California

$84,000

The J/105 is a fun and forgiving performance boat that is fantastic to sail. With its outstanding performance in any wind/ sea condition, it can be lazily cruised under main alone for refreshing evening cruises or simply launch the large asymmetric spinnaker and reel off the miles on a long passage.

Escape Clause is one of the last J/105's off the production line and has a few notable features that make her perfect for Bay Area and short handed sailing such as her Harken electric self-tailing rewind radial winches allowing sheet control from both windward and leeward. You'll enjoy both offshore and inshore sailing in one of the most active J/105 fleets in the country.

Manufacturer Provided Description

When your home is near the water, J/105 may be your ideal sailboat. Count up the number of nights spent sleeping aboard and compare that to the number of picnic sails when you would have liked a larger, more comfortable cockpit. J/105 is the answer. Her large cockpit combined with simple 4-5 berth week-ending layout results in a boat that's easier to handle, more comfortable in waves and more fun to sail for its size. J/105 has the stability, rig and sail controls to handle 15-20 knot winds without the need of reefing. It has the strength and seaworthiness for ocean going passages.

Sailing World Magazine's panel of experts selected J/105 as Boat-of-the-Year among racer-cruisers in 1992. Since then over 680 have been launched worldwide, fulfilling a variety of needs. J/105 makes sailing easier and smoother. No pitching, no rolling about and no panic drills. You may never have to leave her comfortable cockpit. Gone are feverish routines of course and sail changes. Enjoy the luxury of a dodger while napping on full-length cockpit cushions. Only one jib to tend. Roll it in or out. The spinnaker is contained in a snuffer. Jibing is a one person operation. Simply let go the old sheet, then trim in the new one.Good-bye big racing crews and foredeck work. Whether blowing 5 mph or 20 mph, you will want to set the J/105's asymmetric spinnaker - even with just two people aboard! It adds a new dimension to sailing enjoyment.
