Introduces young sailors to double-handed sailing.

The Club FJ is a tough, agile performer for beginners to elite sailors.  The Club is a fantastic choice for clubs and junior programs looking to introduce young sailors to double-handed sailing with a spinnaker.  Our Collegiate version (no spinnaker) is the most popular boat in college sailing; more collegiate sailing teams in North America sail our FJ than any other double-handed sailboat.
