J/80 is a pretty large boat suitable for sailing and racing out of the closed water areas and bays. This racing shell has a phenomenal stability due to the very high proportion of lead ballast in the displacement of the yacht is almost 50%. Is high enough, and power yachts with a relatively large area of the sail (especially when you put the Spinnaker) — this is why J/80 has turned so fast. She is very sensitive on the steering wheel and is able to catch the slightest gusts in the gentle breeze, and strong enough to go almost the speed of the wind.
