The J/122 is distinguished by the high aspect, non-overlapping sailplan (maximum size 110% jib) which further simplifies the deck plan and sail selection. The setback headstay with furler are recessed into the deck to maximize the jib luff length while retaining the convenience of jib furling from the cockpit. And when combined with the simplicity of an asymmetric spinnaker flown from a retractable carbon bow sprit, its easy to achieve near peak performance with minimal crew effort. The J/122 cockpit is ergonomically optimized with a floor mounted traveler, belowdecks mainsheet system, offshore seatbacks, and a removable transom dock box option that allows one to convert from race mode to cruise mode in a matter of minutes.
Two interior plans are available: a three cabin/forward head layout and the more traditional two cabin/two head cruising layout; both layouts finished in varnished light mahogany. Several option packages, tailored to specific cruising and racing needs, will be offered.
The J/122 hull and deck are molded by J/Europe with the SCRIMP infusion system and built to CE Category A standards.
