How do I know a part fits my J/30?

Each part here is linked to the J/30 because its exact manufacturer part number appears on the J/30 parts lists we reviewed. Fit can still depend on your boat's year, builder and rig, so check the product details and your class rules, or ask our technical team before you order.

Where can I find the J/30 rig dimensions?

Our J/30 Sailboat Data page lists the rig dimensions (I, J, P, E) and other published data we hold for this boat. Figures there come from a sailboat database and may differ from class measurement rules.

Yes. Our J/30 - Halyards & Sheets page lists 28 halyard and sheet options made up for this boat.
