J/24

The J/24 was designed in 1977 and was soon established as the world's most popular keel boat - which it has remained ever since. The class is established in nearly 40 countries with well over 100 active fleets. This 24' keelboat is normally sailed with 5 but can be sailed with 4 or 6 as long as the total crew weight is under the class 400kg limit.
