The J/109 Class Association Forum

I am considering entering the 2013 Marblehead to Halifax race in my J/109. I am interested in any advice or suggestions for racing a J/109 in an ISAF category 2 offshore race, i.e. necessary modifications to the boat, number of crew, watch schedule, etc.

#174 Resolve

I am interested in purchasing a used storm trysail and storm jib.

I am a new J109 owner this season, hull #174. i currently have one Ockam display over the companionway and 2 on the mast. I am trying to decide if I should have something at the helm and what it should be. Should it be a GPS and if so what size? Is there any way to display tactical software output, ...

I have recently bought a J109, #174. It currently does not have the 2 bookshelf and cupboard combination on each side. I would like to add them. Does anyone have any advice as to what's involved in doing this? Or have any of you removed yours and would like to sell them?
Thanks.
