J/133 combines cruising comfort with more powerful performance ratios. The easy to manage sailplan allows fewer and less experienced crew, and the extra rig power afforded by a low VCG keel and standard Hall carbon mast will maximize performance across a wide spectrum of conditions.

Since her introduction, J/133 has established a winning record in some of the highest profile PHRF and IRC events around the world including class wins at Key West Race Week, Spi-Ouest Week in France, Storm Trysail's Bi-Race Week, and most recently the 2005 Hamble Winter Series - second year in a row. But let's face it, racing is just part of the ownership equation for most of us. J/133 also has full interior accommodations with a three-cabin single head or dual cabin-dual head layout. There is plenty of space for getting comfortable inshore or offshore with proper offshore galley, navigation station and companionway designs, lots of grab rails, large sea-berths, comfortable well ventilated cabins, and a warm varnished wood finish.

With over 2,200 J/Sprit boats launched in the past decade, sailing with asymmetric spinnakers is now firmly entrenched and J/Boats is leading the charge. In famous sailing venues like Annapolis, Newport, San Francisco Bay and the Solent, it’s now commonplace to see more asymmetric spinnakers than conventional; and for good reason. A-sails are easier! With J/133, the ease of going fast with less crew is combined with a classic, sea-going J cruising interior, to produce a boat as comfortable to sleep aboard as she is to sail.

If you ask an owner what they like best about their J, chances are they will say, “how well she sails.” Like her stablemates, J/133 is designed for blazing speed with fingertip control, whether carving through waves upwind in 12 knots or surfing with double-reefed main in a squall. Long waterline length combined with narrow waterline beam results in a hull that tracks well through the waves with only minimal input from the wheel.
