Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

  • SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Shallow draft: 7.5’.

j 145 sailboat

The key to this combination is a low VCG made possible by a cast nickel-aluminum-bronze keel fin with a lead bulb on the bottom. The ballast-to-displacement ratio is 44 percent, and a draft of 8 feet, 11 inches results in a VCG 2 percent below the DWL. The 145 uses this VCG to get a limit of positive stability of 135 degrees. In the last two years we have seen limits of positive stability for racing boats far in excess of what is considered adequate for cruising boats. Everyone likes stability. It translates directly to sail carrying power.

The hull form of the 145 features a midsection with a surprising amount of deadrise. The hull is relatively narrow with the max beam carried forward in an effort to make the boat more benign when pushed hard off the wind. This is not a shape you would see on a current IMS type of hull with an ultrafine entry. Deadrise fairs out to a flattish run aft. The rudder is huge. You can choose a shoal-draft keel option with 7-foot draft. The D/L of this design is 110.

This is a very interesting interior layout. Note the V-berth/double pushed forward, leaving a large sail stowage area directly forward of the mast. Aft of this, the layout is conventional with a pilot berth to port, outboard of the opposing settee berths. The galley is big, but I would have turned the icebox 90 degrees to allow the range to come forward, providing counter space each side. It's a personal taste thing, but I do a lot of cooking and I know galleys. I surprised last week's crew with my super three-cheese lasagna. Nitpicking aside, this is a great layout. Numerous options are available if you want to "plush up" the interior.

This is a big rig. The SA/D is 29. The spreaders are minimally swept, and runners and checkstays will be needed to keep the standard Hall Spars carbon stick in column. The mainsail is raised on a 2:1 halyard. The bowsprit is retractable. The sailplan shows overlapping genoas, but for cruising, a 95-percent blade jib would be enough to allow you to blow away almost any other cruising boat.

I have been a long-time fan of J Boat's decks. They seem to suit my own sailing style to a T, and the 145 is no exception. The cockpit is long and has seats long enough to stretch out on. The coamings are low and that could be a problem for lounging, but they will make getting in and out of the cockpit easy. I like a low coaming at the wheel, but I like at least 12-inch coamings forward.

The 145 is built in TPI's patented Scrimp method with unidirectional carbon and E-glass skins over Baltek's Superlight 45 core. The engine is a 56-horsepower Yanmar 4JH3CE with a saildrive unit. There is tankage for 90 gallons of water in two tanks and 75 gallons of fuel.

Designer Rod Johnstone has given us a J Boat cruiser that in focus is not far from my own Icon design. As Bill Lee once said: "Fast is fun."

Rolling With Yahtzee

Boat Notes | 48-foot J/145 Double Take

As readers know, I love sailing and reviewing unique boats — especially boats that I’ve had a chance to give a real test. And there’s no better way to test a boat than by racing her in a variety of conditions and on the ocean. That being the case, this boat review has been a long time coming. As mainsail trimmer and relief helmsman aboard the J/145 Double Take (DT) for several years, including two Round the County races and the entire 2015 Van Isle 360 (read a race recap here ), I’ve long thought about what I’d type when it came time to write a review of a boat that I have an incredible amount of admiration for. Well, here it is.

From behind Double Take’s large wheel, I glanced astern every few seconds to watch as the sun dropped over the seemingly endless Pacific horizon. Soon after, we were sailing fast in the pitch dark somewhere between Winter Harbour and Ucluelet, British Columbia and I felt like I could be steering with my eyes closed. As we surfed down the face of a wave and were picked by the next one, the helm was light and the spinnaker trimmers were keeping us working in concert with the 20-plus knot breeze.

Besides the dark silhouettes of my crew mates and a smattering of stars, the gentle glow of the B&G instruments was all I could see for hours on end as I steered; playing with the numbers like a video game to see how fast I could get the boat to go — 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 knots. And when it was time to relinquish my grip on the wheel, it was with reluctance that I peeled my fingers from it’s leather covering.

Double Take  always has a grip on those who sail her, and I was no exception.

A Capable Cruiser

When delivering Double Take  up to Nanaimo for the start of the Van Isle 360, the three-person crew we had aboard felt like we were in more of a cruising mode than anything. The B&G autopilot ably kept us on course as we tracked north and with ample space down below and on deck, it felt like we were on vacation. Indeed, we were.

The design directive of the J/145 wasn’t all about being a pure racing boat. It was J Boats intent to make the 48-footer an adept cruiser as well. Designer Rod Johnstone had this exact transformation capability in mind when creating the J/145. They wanted her to be just as capable on the race course as she was while cruising, and to have the ability to switch modes from one to the other in a relatively painless way.

The saloon is spacious enough to sleep four comfortably and each bunk has lee cloths that come in handy while underway. A drop leaf table is easily affixed to the teak and holly cabin sole and there is tons of storage under the pilot berths, which is accessed through the seat backs. The blue ultrasuede cushions show little wear and the overall feel of the space is of a cruising boat, rather than a racer.

Aft of the saloon and to port is a U-shaped galley with double sinks on centerline and a large, top-loading reefer. There is plenty of storage throughout and, with a crew of up to 12 aboard for the VI360, we needed every square inch of it.

To starboard is the navigation station that is setup for sailing as far as you want to go. The desktop is plenty big and within reach you’ve got a VHF, SSB, Furuno chartplotter, Sat phone, Northstar chartplotting GPS, tank tender, digital barometer and Xantrex battery monitor/controller. Also, with the ability to plugin a laptop to a single USB for computer navigation, weather routing and sat comms, there is little else you could add to this space.

Aft of the nav station is the starboard aft cabin. This is another double berth and with a split cushion, a lee cloth comes up to separate the bunk while at sea. There is a large hanging locker to starboard and a delivery/cruising fuel bladder is housed under the bunk.

To port and aft of the galley is the other head, which is larger than the forward one. Finished in white, it is easy to keep clean and there is ample storage for toiletries. What’s unique about this head is that it is also the walkthrough to the “garage”, which is found farther aft through a door. Also accessible from the cockpit, this large storage space can accommodate safety gear, lines, bikes, sails or whatever cruising toys you might want to fit aboard. It’s also home to the boat’s watermaker.

When it comes to cruising, the J/145 has enough space and accommodations for a couple or full crew to travel in comfort.

A Thoroughbred Performer 

Around the Pacific Northwest, Double Take’s racing pedigree and history of success is fairly well known. To her credit, she’s earned two class wins in the TransPac, a first overall and first to finish in the Vic-Maui Race and took third in the 2015 Van Isle 360, to name a few. And many other J/145s have been successful the world over including trophies at Key West Race Week, the Fastnet Race, Port Huron-Mac Race, RORC Season Championship and a third place finish in the Sydney Hobart Race.

Build-wise, DT is unlike any other J/145. During construction, her original owner hired a manager to oversee the build of the boat and, in doing that, he assured no corners were cut and that certain areas, such as the winch pads, were overbuilt. What resulted is a remarkably stiff boat that has aged well and performs exceptionally in any amount of breeze. Whether it was beating into 35-plus knots in Johnstone Strait, reaching fast on the Pacific Ocean or gliding smoothly past boats on the glassy waters of Georgia Strait, I’ve seen DT pretty much do it all. She’s impressive upwind and down, and when a mere zephyr was all we’ve had to make her go, it’s remarkable how well she moved.

DT’s  ergonomic cockpit and deck layout is a plus for the performance-minded, as the helmsman and mainsail trimmer can sit comfortably side-by-side and out of the way of those trimming headsails. While shorthanded, a single crewmember can work the cockpit forward of the wheel and traveler without a whole lot of fuss, and when not racing, the electric winches are extremely helpful when hoisting and trimming sails.

When switching modes, Double Take goes from cruising to racing in various ways. Her dodger can be removed, as can a carbon fiber radar pole and radar. The forward cabin cushions can be removed in order to transform it into a large sail locker for the various performance headsails and spinnakers that come with the boat — which are almost too many to list (go here  for more).

Overall, Double Take is a flat out fast boat that is a blast to sail.

Choose your own adventure

Racer? Cruiser? If had my pick, I’d do both. But it’s up to you.  Double Take is well suited for those who are looking to race across the horizon, around the buoys or around the county. I’m obviously bias here in that she is exceptionally fun to be on fully crewed in any sort of race, because I’ve been one of the crew. But that also means I know the boat better than most, and can say with full confidence that her next owner and crew will not be disappointed.

As a cruiser, Double Take will be a boat that can sail fast from point to point in any amount of breeze, even with a shorthanded crew. Her accommodations will make you feel at home and the amount of space down below, in the cockpit and on deck will allow for a family or group of friends to comfortably cruise for days or even weeks. Or, as J Boats aptly put it, “The J/145 is the answer for those who seek grace and elegance in their cruising comforts…but not at the cost of performance.”

The bottom line is that when you climb aboard DT and get her sails up in any amount of wind, you won’t want to let go of that wheel — I certainly didn’t.

Review of J/145

Basic specs..

The hull is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season.

Unknown keel type

The boat can only enter major marinas as the draft is about 2.71 - 2.81 meter (8.89 - 9.19 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.

The boat is typically equipped with an inboard Yanmar 4JH3-CE diesel engine at 56 hp (41 kW).

Sailing characteristics

This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.

What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?

The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 8.7 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.

The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for J/145 is about 343 kg/cm, alternatively 1924 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 343 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 1924 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

Sailing statistics

This section is statistical comparison with similar boats of the same category. The basis of the following statistical computations is our unique database with more than 26,000 different boat types and 350,000 data points.

What is L/B (Length Beam Ratio)?

What is a Ballast Ratio?

Maintenance

When buying anti-fouling bottom paint, it's nice to know how much to buy. The surface of the wet bottom is about 65m 2 (699 ft 2 ). Based on this, your favourite maritime shop can tell you the quantity you need.

VESSEL REVIEW | Sinichka – Electric commuter boats designed for Russia’s Moskva River

Photo: Moscow Deptrans

A series of three new electric monohull commuter ferries have already begun operational sailings on the Moskva River in the Russian capital Moscow.

Built by Russian shipyard Emperium, sister vessels Sinichka , Filka , and Presnya – all named after rivers in Moscow – are being operated by the Moscow Department of Transport and Road Infrastructure Development (Moscow Deptrans). They are the first units of a planned fleet of 20 vessels that will serve the capital city and other nearby communities. The new ferry system will be the water transport system to be operated on the Moskva River in 16 years.

Each vessel has a welded aluminium hull, an LOA of 21 metres, a beam of 6.2 metres, a draught of only 1.4 metres, a displacement of 40 tonnes, and capacity for 80 passengers plus two crewmembers. Seating is available for 42 passengers on each ferry, and the main cabins are also fitted with USB charging ports, wifi connectivity, tables, toilets, and space for bicycles and scooters. The cabin layout can be rearranged to allow the operator to adjust the distances between the seats and to install armrests of varying widths.

<em>Photo: Moscow City Government</em>

An open upper deck is also accessible to passengers and is the only area on each ferry where smoking is allowed.

The ferries are all of modular construction with each ferry's wheelhouse, main cabin, and other structural elements being built as complete, separate components. This enables the ferries to be easily dismantled for transport to anywhere in Russia by rail and then quickly re-assembled within seven days.

The ferries are also ice-capable. Recently completed operational trials on the Moskva showed that the vessels can also easily navigate under mild winter conditions with broken surface ice, though year-round operations are planned for the entire fleet.

The ferries are each fitted with 500kWh lithium iron phosphate battery packs that supply power to two 134kW motors. This configuration can deliver a maximum speed of 11.8 knots, a cruising speed of just under 10 knots, and a range of 150 kilometres.

Emperium said the transfer of rotation of electric motors to the propeller is carried out by direct drive. As a propulsion installation, a pulling rotary propeller-steering column with double screws is used. The installation of double pulling screws, with similar power, allows an operator to increase the efficiency of the propulsion system to deliver a slightly higher speed or to reduce energy consumption. This arrangement also provides the ferries with enhanced manoeuvrability necessary for navigating in close quarters.

The batteries themselves have projected service lives of 10 to 12 years and are fitted with safety features such as built-in fire extinguishers and gas vents. Quick-disconnect features allow the batteries to be easily removed for replacement or maintenance.

Some of our readers have expressed disquiet at our publication of reviews and articles describing new vessels from Russia. We at Baird Maritime can understand and sympathise with those views. However, despite the behaviour of the country's leaders, we believe that the maritime world needs to learn of the latest developments in vessel design and construction there.

Cruising the Moskva River: A short guide to boat trips in Russia’s capital

j 145 sailboat

There’s hardly a better way to absorb Moscow’s atmosphere than on a ship sailing up and down the Moskva River. While complicated ticketing, loud music and chilling winds might dampen the anticipated fun, this checklist will help you to enjoy the scenic views and not fall into common tourist traps.

How to find the right boat?

There are plenty of boats and selecting the right one might be challenging. The size of the boat should be your main criteria.

Plenty of small boats cruise the Moskva River, and the most vivid one is this yellow Lay’s-branded boat. Everyone who has ever visited Moscow probably has seen it.

j 145 sailboat

This option might leave a passenger disembarking partially deaf as the merciless Russian pop music blasts onboard. A free spirit, however, will find partying on such a vessel to be an unforgettable and authentic experience that’s almost a metaphor for life in modern Russia: too loud, and sometimes too welcoming. Tickets start at $13 (800 rubles) per person.

Bigger boats offer smoother sailing and tend to attract foreign visitors because of their distinct Soviet aura. Indeed, many of the older vessels must have seen better days. They are still afloat, however, and getting aboard is a unique ‘cultural’ experience. Sometimes the crew might offer lunch or dinner to passengers, but this option must be purchased with the ticket. Here is one such  option  offering dinner for $24 (1,490 rubles).

j 145 sailboat

If you want to travel in style, consider Flotilla Radisson. These large, modern vessels are quite posh, with a cozy restaurant and an attentive crew at your service. Even though the selection of wines and food is modest, these vessels are still much better than other boats.

j 145 sailboat

Surprisingly, the luxurious boats are priced rather modestly, and a single ticket goes for $17-$32 (1,100-2,000 rubles); also expect a reasonable restaurant bill on top.

How to buy tickets?

Women holding photos of ships promise huge discounts to “the young and beautiful,” and give personal invitations for river tours. They sound and look nice, but there’s a small catch: their ticket prices are usually more than those purchased online.

“We bought tickets from street hawkers for 900 rubles each, only to later discover that the other passengers bought their tickets twice as cheap!”  wrote  (in Russian) a disappointed Rostislav on a travel company website.

Nevertheless, buying from street hawkers has one considerable advantage: they personally escort you to the vessel so that you don’t waste time looking for the boat on your own.

j 145 sailboat

Prices start at $13 (800 rubles) for one ride, and for an additional $6.5 (400 rubles) you can purchase an unlimited number of tours on the same boat on any given day.

Flotilla Radisson has official ticket offices at Gorky Park and Hotel Ukraine, but they’re often sold out.

Buying online is an option that might save some cash. Websites such as  this   offer considerable discounts for tickets sold online. On a busy Friday night an online purchase might be the only chance to get a ticket on a Flotilla Radisson boat.

This  website  (in Russian) offers multiple options for short river cruises in and around the city center, including offbeat options such as ‘disco cruises’ and ‘children cruises.’ This other  website  sells tickets online, but doesn’t have an English version. The interface is intuitive, however.

Buying tickets online has its bad points, however. The most common is confusing which pier you should go to and missing your river tour.

j 145 sailboat

“I once bought tickets online to save with the discount that the website offered,” said Igor Shvarkin from Moscow. “The pier was initially marked as ‘Park Kultury,’ but when I arrived it wasn’t easy to find my boat because there were too many there. My guests had to walk a considerable distance before I finally found the vessel that accepted my tickets purchased online,” said the man.

There are two main boarding piers in the city center:  Hotel Ukraine  and  Park Kultury . Always take note of your particular berth when buying tickets online.

Where to sit onboard?

Even on a warm day, the headwind might be chilly for passengers on deck. Make sure you have warm clothes, or that the crew has blankets ready upon request.

The glass-encased hold makes the tour much more comfortable, but not at the expense of having an enjoyable experience.

j 145 sailboat

Getting off the boat requires preparation as well. Ideally, you should be able to disembark on any pier along the way. In reality, passengers never know where the boat’s captain will make the next stop. Street hawkers often tell passengers in advance where they’ll be able to disembark. If you buy tickets online then you’ll have to research it yourself.

There’s a chance that the captain won’t make any stops at all and will take you back to where the tour began, which is the case with Flotilla Radisson. The safest option is to automatically expect that you’ll return to the pier where you started.
