10 / 44 - score 59%
The Rj 85 is a 28.05ft fractional sloop designed by Rolf Jacobssen and built in fiberglass between 1969 and 1977.
500 units have been built.
The Rj 85 is a light sailboat which is under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser.
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.
