About the J/110

Updated version of the J/34C, J/35C.

Sailpages Buyer's Take

The J/110 is a rare, high-performance fractional sloop designed by Rodney S. Johnstone and built by J Boats Tillotson Pearson (USA) between 1995 and 1997. With only 16 hulls built, this 36-foot vessel represents a limited production run that blends racing pedigree with cruising amenities.

Best for:
This boat is best suited for experienced sailors seeking a fast, responsive racer-cruiser for coastal and bay sailing, particularly those who value performance over heavy offshore comfort.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 12200.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.91, the J/110 is primarily designed for coastal and protected waters rather than heavy offshore passage-making.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the J/36 and J/35, as they share similar fractional rig configurations and performance-oriented hull forms from the same era, though the J/110 is a distinct, low-volume model.
