The International FJ is a Dutch sailboat that was designed by Uus Van Essen and Conrad Gülcher as a trainer and one design racer , first built in 1956.[1] [2] [3] [4]
The boat was initially called the Flying Dutchman Junior (after the Flying Dutchman one design racer), as it was designed as a trainer for that Olympic sailing class boat. It was later called the Flying Junior . In 1980 the name was again officially changed to the International FJ.[1] [2] [5]
The design became a World Sailing accepted International class in 1972-73.[6]
Production [ edit ]
The design has been built by a large number of companies including Grampian Marine and Paceship Yachts in Canada, Chantier Naval Costantini in France, Alpa Yachts , Centro Nautico Adriatico , Comar Yachts , Galetti and Nautivela in Italy, Van Doesburg, Dusseldorp, Van Wettum and Perry Lengton in The Nederlands, Advance Sailboat Corp , W. D. Schock Corp , Whitecap Composites and Zim Sailing in the United States.
The first Flying Junior was built by Pim van den Brink (Kolibri) in the Dutch village Stompwijk.[1] [2] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28]
4,600 + boats have been built.[1] [2]
W. D. Schock Corp records indicate that they built 70 boats between 1968 and 1972.[29]
It remains in production by Centro Nautico Adriatico, Zim Sailing and Whitecap Composites.[5] [30] [31]

The International FJ is a racing sailing dinghy , with early versions built from wood. Fiberglass was class-authorized in 1960.[1] [2]
The boat has a fractional sloop rig, a raked stem , a plumb transom , a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and retractable centerboard . It displaces 165 lb (75 kg ).[1] [2]
The boat has a draft of 2.50 ft (0.76 m ) with the centerboard extended and 7 in (18 cm ) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching , ground transportation on a trailer or car roof.[1] [2]
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of 86 sq ft (8.0 m 2 sailors . A single trapeze is available for use by the crew.[1] [2] [6]
The Club FJ is a version with heavier construction but similar dimensions produced by Zim Sailing. It displaces 220 lb (100 kg ) and has a spinnaker of 80 sq ft (7.4 m 2 [1] [2] [31]
Whitecap Composites produces a lightened version of the design with improved ergonomics, marketed as the "Turbo FJ".[5]
Operational history [ edit ]
The boat is supported by an active class club that organizes racing events, the International FJ Class .[32] [33]
