It would be tough to beat the J/88 for great all-round capability. Named 30' and under Boat of the Year in 2014, the J/88 has notable inshore and offshore capabilities in her class. This popular model from J/Boats offers great one design racing, and ticks all the boxes for sailability, safety and speed.
Whether single or short handed, club or one design racing or weekends exploring local stops with family and friends, the J/88's versatility stands out. Rain comes with a v-berth package and a full set of interior cushions. Well maintained she has a fresh bottom job (2024) and List Marine engine service in 2024, plus Saildrive servicing in 2016 and 2022.
This is a great opportunity to get into the popular Bay Area J/88 one design fleet!

Manufacturer Provided Description
The J/88 is a 29’ mid-size family speedster with stability, style and sailing comfort. J/88 hits the sweet-spot in J Boat’s performance range – large enough to provide the creature comforts of a sit-in cockpit, inboard diesel, overnighting interior and head; and small enough to be single-point lifted, owner trailered and stored. Design highlights include a high-aspect, non-overlapping sail plan (no genoas) with a carbon fiber, double-spreader mast - deck stepped for easy rigging, tuning and keeping the main cabin dry.
The 6.5 ft fixed, low VCG keel with molded GRP finish is similar to the J/70’s, ensuring a fair, smooth foil for every boat. The result will be a ride that’s every bit as exciting as the J/88’s speedster siblings - fast and balanced upwind with planing performance downwind in moderate to fresh breezes.
