The J/32 is a capable, fast, coastal cruiser/daysailer. This particular example is extremely well equipped for shorthanded or singlehanded operation. The deck hardware is from Harken, Schaeffer and Lewmar, and there is a full complement of new electronics from Raymarine. The running rigging is all new in 2024, as well as the mainsail, dodger, electronics and more. The navigation lighting is all LED. You’ll search far to find a better equipped, easier to sail, more comfortable and faster boat in this size range. The cabin is bright and airy thanks to 11 Lewmar opening and screened ports and hatches, as well as J/Boats use of light woods and white surfaces where appropriate. The L shaped galley has a big, 6 cubic foot icebox, a 2 burner LPG stove with oven and broiler and lots of storage. There’s also a door from the galley that leads to one of two huge cockpit lockers. Aft to port is the nice sized head with shower. Below the lavatory is a 5 gallon hot water tank and storage outboard. There’s also a big area for hanging foul weather gear or wet lines. The main salon features two 6’4” berths, one of which converts to a double. There’s also a two leaf drop-down dining table that serves 4-6. You’ll find abundant storage behind and below the settees, and there’s LED lighting throughout the cabin. Forward of the main bulkhead is a large V-berth as well as several drawers, cupboards and a hanging locker. There’s also some easily accessible storage below the V-berth. To sum it up, like all J/boats, this boat is fast and fun to sail and it’s also comfortable, clean and dry.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Shoal draft version: draft = 4.75’/1.45m.
