Lake Shark Boat | 53' J Boats 1997

Designed for short-handed performance cruising, offshore live-aboard comfort, built by TPI, certified to ABS + A1 Classification.

 

The J160 is designed to maximize comfort and handling for long distance offshore cruising and perform at speeds exceeding most 60 foot racers. J160 incorporates a retractable carbon fiber J/Sprit system. With asymmetrical spinnaker and snuffer, this system replaces the cumbersome and crew intensive conventional spinnaker while defining short-handed downwind performance. Other standard features include ABS + A1 classification, TPI’s infusion molding system, Hall Spar’s carbon fiber cruising spar, and performance hardware from Harken, Schaefer & Lewmar.

 

Construction

The J160 utilizes TPI resin-infused composite sandwich construction with selective reinforcements and vinylester resins. Hull and deck are built with Baltek aircraft grade end-grained balsa with biaxial and unidirectional glass fabric with reinforcing under high loaded areas. All laminate schedules are approved by the American Bureau of Shipping to their highest standard and each yacht is independently surveyed while under construction.

 

Rigging & Carbon Fiber Spar

The J160 is offered with Navtec rod rigging, Spectra and Kevlar running rigging and

carbon fiber spar technology from Hall Spars. The significant reduction in weight aloft of the carbon and low stretch halyards and rigging further optimizes all around performance and comfort.

 

Custom engineered, one piece moldings of the mast, spreaders, and fittings are precision built with unidirectional prepreg epoxy carbon fiber of medium modulus with selective reinforcement in high load areas. Each layer of carbon is carefully aligned to ensure maximum strength and stiffness. The carbon mast is then post-cured in Hall Composite’s autoclave with 80psi curing pressure at 250 deg. F.

 

Antal car track is standard for easy hoisting, heavy-air dousing, and reefing of the mainsail. Harken roller furling is standard for headsail control.
