Sky

Sportboat Fleet

J/80

Do you want to have an exciting day blasting around the Bay with speed and smiles? The J/80 Sky in our Berkeley Sportboat Fleet is for you!

Longer, narrower, and lighter than a J/24, the J/80 is 26 feet long with a beam of just over 8 feet, and weighs only 2,900 pounds.

The jib is on a rolling furler - no hanks! This makes for quick rigging at the beginning of the day and an easy furl-up at the end of the day.

The J/80 has a larger cockpit than the J/24, but can be equally as wet. Dress appropriately!

The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.

I took ASA 101 with them recently. They have the best customer service I've ever seen! I mistyped my address when I signed up online so didn't receive the textbook. I called and the lady immediately sent me another copy! Everyone at the club is super friendly.

The Full Moon Sail with Skipper Bob Gutsgell was Ah-Mayzing!! The group dynamic was lovely and the views spectacular. I can't say enough good things about the experience. Thanks so much for the wonderful Club Sails, they are really great.

Captain Jeff Cathers is really cool. I had such a great time on the Farallones Day Trip. It was actually my very best day of 2020. Thank you so much for coordinating the trip.
