JY15
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 314: malformed pattern (missing ']'). The JY15 is a one-design centerboard dinghy designed by Rod Johnstone in 1989. An optional Turbo Rig (no longer available) provided trapeze lines for the crew and a spinnaker.
The original JY-15 was made out of ACP (Advanced Composite Process) rather than the usual fiberglass or wood materials used for most dinghys. ACP is a laminate consisting of a foam core, an inner fiberglass skin, and a 1/8" outer plastic skin.
As of 2010, the ACP version is no longer being manufactured, but a fiberglass version is being made by Nickels Boatworks in Fenton, Michigan.
