2019 J Boats J/121

The 2019 J/121 is a 40-foot racing and cruising sailboat built on a proven design that balances competitive performance with offshore capability. This particular example has been extensively modified for serious racing, with upgrades including a taller mast with mast jack, carbon boom, split backstay with load cells, and additional winches for backstay runners. The hull has been fully faired by a professional marine service, and the pushpits and bow pulpit are painted for a finished appearance.

Navigation and race instrumentation include a B&G 5000 Hercules full system with a backup chartplotter at the navigation station. The yacht is powered by a single 39-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine. Construction is fiberglass with a beam of 12.25 feet, providing a solid platform for both distance racing and coastal cruising.

The boat has demonstrated success in competitive ocean and bay racing, with its design and modifications oriented toward long-distance offshore passages and varied wind conditions. The combination of factory engineering and professional race preparation makes this a ready-to-compete example of the class.
