J/Boats designs range from one-design racers to fast cruiser-racers, so their rigging is often more performance-sensitive than that of a typical cruising yacht. This section provides model-specific guidance for owners planning standing-rigging renewal, running-rigging upgrades or associated mast and deck-hardware work. Individual pages include indicative replacement costs and recommendations for furlers, kickers, winches, masts and booms where suitable data is available. Some models may use rod or compacted-strand rigging, and race boats are frequently modified during their lives. The exact rig type, stay dimensions, terminals and mast fittings should therefore be confirmed before replacement equipment is specified.
Useful J/Boats rigging guides include: J/97, J/105, J/133, J/22, J/24 and J/70. Open a model guide for indicative standing-rigging sizes, replacement costs and equipment recommendations.
