J Boats J109 2004

Introducing AVIATO, a highly equipped J/109 that has been actively raced and continuously upgraded with professional maintenance and a rich inventory of racing sails. This boat is perfect for one-design racing, competitive PHRF events, offshore adventures, or enjoyable family cruising, offering an exceptional blend of performance, adaptability, and comfort. Designed by Rod Johnstone and constructed by TPI in Rhode Island, the J/109 is renowned as a top-performing 35-foot racer/cruiser. Its lightweight, sturdy SCRIMP-infused composite hull, deep lead-bulb keel, fractional rig, and retractable carbon bowsprit ensure remarkable performance in various conditions. The non-overlapping headsail and asymmetric spinnaker setup simplify sail handling, making it easier than traditional systems. Launched in February 2004, Hull #174 is one of the last J/109s built in the USA by Tillotson Pearson. It is highly sought after by One-Design racers and benefits from TPI's advanced SCRIMP resin-infusion process, adhering strictly to class hull-weight regulations. Actively raced, AVIATO boasts a 2026 PHRF rating of 74, with its rig tuned to North Sails’ specifications, featuring a 2025 North 3Di J1, a 2022 North 3Di J2, and a 2021 North 3Di mainsail and J1. An extensive array of racing, PHRF, and offshore sails offers significant flexibility for various conditions and racing formats. Recent enhancements include a B&G Zeus navigation system, Triton instrumentation, and upgrades to the rudderpost seal, bilge pump, batteries, running rigging, and more. The professionally maintained, wet-sanded Baltoplate racing bottom is regularly cleaned during the racing season. The spacious and secure cockpit features a large wheel, well-organized sail controls, and a removable locker, with a dodger and cushions adding comfort for cruising. Below deck, two private cabins, a cozy main salon, a functional galley, and an enclosed head provide comfortable accommodations for six. Unlike more specialized racing vessels, the J/109 ensures genuine comfort for weekends and coastal cruising. AVIATO is an exciting opportunity for performance-focused sailors looking for a well-equipped J/109 that seamlessly blends racing and cruising capabilities.
