J/105

Specifications:

J 105 # 236 spent her first twenty years on a lake in Tennessee, sailed from a lift for daysailing and short cruising. As a result, she was in much better condition, with minimal grazing when compared with other J 105’s from the same era. After purchase by her new owner in 2021, and renamed BRIGADOON, she has undergone an extensive two year restoration, optimizing her for ORR and PHRF racing, while maintaining an emphasis on easy sailing and yacht quality cosmetics. She was sailed as a standard J 105 in 2021 and modifications began during the winter of 2021-22, including:

• Design optimization by Greg Stewart of Nelson Marek Design o Optimized keel and rudder templates o Optimized sail plan including higher spinnaker halyard and permanent sprit

• Interior Upgrades o Replace all floorboards in main cabin o Clean and paint forepeak o Construct box over through hull fittings for fathometer and speedometer o Remove sink and install stainless steel icebox with drain using sink through hull fitting o Upgrade storage bins and install teak doors o Strengthen companionway ladder attachment o Add Teak Hatchboards o New Sunbrella Cushions
