42′ J Boats

About this yacht

<p>Opening Description</p><p>Introduced in 1994 and designed by Rod Johnstone, the J/130 is J/Boats' performance cruiser for sailors who wanted real speed and seakeeping without a full racing crew. Built by TPI (Tillotson Pearson) in Warren, Rhode Island, she belongs to the celebrated generation of J/Boats "sprit boats" - fast, light-displacement designs carrying a retractable bowsprit for easily handled asymmetric spinnakers.&nbsp;</p><p>A deep external lead bulb keel, balanced spade rudder and a tall fractional rig give the J/130 her trademark blend of effortless reaching speed, easy motion at sea, and the shorthanded manageability that puts 200-mile days within reach of a couple. NOOTKA is a offshore-capable example, outfitted over the years with an extensive inventory of cruising and racing gear.&nbsp;</p><p>Belowdecks, her light but warmly finished interior - teak-and-holly sole, varnished trim and plenty of light - offers two cabins and a head, sleeping up to seven, with a forward V-berth, settees and a pilot berth in the saloon, and a double quarter cabin aft.&nbsp;</p><p>Her systems include a Spectra water maker, Seafrost refrigeration, Max Prop feathering propeller, Raymarine, Garmin and B&amp;G electronics, Hydrovane self steering, large solar array and a full quiver of sails.&nbsp;NOOTKA is equally at home on a Pacific Northwest cruise or a Transpac start line. A recent (2025) survey is available for review.</p><p>Interior Accommodations</p><p>NOOTKA's interior reflects her performance-cruiser brief: light, well-built, and warmly finished, with bright teak-and-holly overlay on the sole, varnished wood trim, laminate countertops with wood sea rails, and an upholstered, ventilated cabin lit by opening ports and hatches.&nbsp;</p><p>The two-cabin layout sleeps up to six (three single and two double berths) and is served by a single head. Numerous opening ports and hatches provide excellent light and ventilation throughout.</p><p>Forward, the V-berth cabin offers a comfortable double with a hanging locker to port and access aft to the head.</p><p>To starboard, forward, the head compartment is fitted with a marine head, vanity with sink, and a separate shower, with the keel-stepped mast passing through on the compartment's inboard side. Pressure hot and cold water serves the vanity and shower.</p><p>Amidships, the main saloon is arranged with settees to port and starboard around a drop-leaf table, plus a fold out pilot berth to starboard, making a functional and sociable space underway and at anchor.&nbsp;</p><p>The galley is to starboard at the aft end of the saloon, set up for use at sea, with a Force 10 gimballed three-burner propane stove and oven, a Seafrost cold-plate refrigerator/freezer (12V and engine-driven compressors), a double stainless sink with pressure and foot-pump fresh water plus a saltwater foot pump.</p><p>Opposite, to port, the navigation station carries the boat's electronics and electrical distribution, with the main panel and instrument displays close to hand.Aft, the double quarter-berth cabin (to port) provides a comfortable sea berth and guest cabin.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><span style="color: inherit;">Galley</span></p><ul><li>Force10 three-burner propane stove and oven</li><li>Seafrost12v DC cold-plate refrigerator</li><li>Dual10lbpropanetanksinventedaftlocker</li><li>Double stainless-steel sink; fresh and saltwater galley foot pumps</li><li>Magma15"roundBBQgrill</li><li>Galley ware (8 settings), nesting cookware, cutlery and utensils</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Electronics and Navigation</p><p>B&amp;G NMEA 2000 system:</p><ul><li>B&amp;GZeus3 9"chartplotter/MFD</li><li>(4) Triton2 4.1"cockpitdisplays (boat speed, windspeed and direction, depth, VMG, and other metrics)</li><li>WS320 wireless wind transducer and antenna</li><li>ZG100GPS antenna with compass</li><li>Em-Trak B100 ClassB AIS with S100GPS antenna</li><li>Garmin GPSmap3206 chart plotter</li><li>Garmin GPSmap78sc handheld GPS</li><li>RaymarineST6002 autopilot with fluxgate reference compass</li><li>5"Ritchie magnetic compass pedestal mounted</li><li>Weems &amp; Plath clock and barometer and digital recording barometer/weather station</li><li>iCOM IC-M412 VHF at the helm station</li><li>Standard Horizon Spectrum VHF at the nav station</li><li>iCOM IC-M34 handheld VHF</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Electrical Systems</p><ul><li>12V DC and 120V AC electrical systems</li><li>House bank: (4)Group27 92Ah 12V AGM batteries</li><li>Start: (1) Group27 92Ah 12V AGMbattery</li><li>Xantrex Freedom2000 inverter/charger</li><li>Balmar 125A alternator with regulator</li><li>(2) 330W Panasonic solar panels on stainless arch with (2) Victron MPPT100/30 controllers</li><li>Xantrex battery monitor</li><li>ProSafe galvanic isolator, 30A</li><li>30A/ 120V shore power with Marinetics receptacle; reverse-polarity warning and GFCI outlets</li><li>DC distribution panel with breaker/fuse-protected circuits; digital voltage and usage meters</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Mechanical Systems</p><ul><li>Yanmar 3JH2-TBE47hp, 3-cylinder turbocharged diesel (4507hours)</li><li>Kanzaki KM3A 2.64:1 reduction transmission</li><li>1¼"stainless steel shaft with conventional packing gland; bronze strut</li><li>MaxProp3-blade20" feathering propeller (in use)</li><li>Martec 2-blade 19" folding propeller (spare, in storage)</li><li>Racor primary fuel filter/water separator plus Yanmar engine filter</li><li>54"aluminum wheel with leather cover</li><li>Emergency tiller provision at rudder stock</li><li>Hydrovane mechanical self-steering windvane (also serves as emergency rudder/tiller)</li><li>SpectraVentura150watermaker(~150gal/day)</li><li>6-gallon Raritan water heater (electric and engine)</li><li>Pressure hot and cold water to galley, head, and cockpit</li><li>(2) manual diaphragm bilge pumps plus (1)12V automatic submersible bilge pump</li><li>Marelon seacocks throughout</li><li>Fuel: 30 gallons, welded aluminum tank</li><li>Freshwater: 60gallons total (35gallons starboard + 25gallons port)</li><li>Holding: 13 gallons (forward)</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Deck and Hull</p><p>The J/130's hull and deck are molded fiberglass with balsa coring, joined at the sheer flange with adhesive sealant and secondary interior FRP tabbing.&nbsp;</p><p>The underbody is classic Rod Johnstone performance form: a raked stem, low-wetted-surface canoe body, an external fin keel with a deep lead bulb (6,750 lb. ballast, 8' 6" draft), a balanced composite spade rudder, and a reverse- counter transom with an integral swim platform.&nbsp;</p><p>Her deck features wide side decks with painted non-skid on all horizontal surfaces, a sliding companionway hatch with turtle and drop board, two escape hatches and two vent hatches, stainless handrails, and a stainless bow frame carrying a canvas-and-clear-acrylic dodger.&nbsp;</p><p>Stainless steel pulpit, pushpit, and double lifelines on stainless stanchions surround the deck, and a welded aluminum arch aft carries the solar panels.
