12 / 61 - score 59%
The Pj 40 ss is a 39.3ft masthead sloop designed by Sparkman & Stephens and built in fiberglass by Palmer Johnson (USA) since 1970.
The Pj 40 ss is a heavy sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
