J/9 Equipment
Easy-access cockpit with deep, secure 8.4′ cockpit seats and backrests, self-draining cockpit and step-on transom for easy swim platform boarding.
A deck layout optimized for simplicity and efficiency with sail controls led to the cockpit.
20” lifelines and rails with starboard and transom boarding gates for secure boarding from a dock or a launch.
Keel-stepped, tapered aluminum mast with single spreaders.
Jib roller furling system with single-line self-tacking option.
Tiller steering – more responsive and maneuverable than a wheel, and the driver can comfortably sit with feet braced across the cockpit. At anchor, simply hinge up the tiller to expand one’s social area. And for solo sailors a belowdecks auto-pilot is available.
Low VCG (vertical center of gravity) 4.9’ fixed keel standard, with shoal-draft 3.9’ optional.
Auxiliary engine options: inboard diesel, inboard electric, or transom bracket for portable electric or 4-stroke gas outboard.
Interior with main cabin seating, cooler, storage compartments, ventilation from two opening ports and skylight hatch, and a marine head system forward of the main bulkhead with privacy curtain and optional V-Berth package.
Easy to trailer behind an SUV or ship overseas on an angled cradle inside a container.
