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!

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 office staff was very accommodating in meeting my availability.

I've taken two classes at MSS&C and was very happy with the program. This is also a great club with lots of opportunities for camaraderie and practice on the water. The boats in the fleet are fantastic and kept in tip-top shape. I highly recommend for all sailors and would-be sailors!

I would definitely recommend Modern Sailing to anyone who is interested in learning to sail the right way.

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.
