The J J/99 is a fractional sloop designed by Alan Johnstone and built by J Boats, Composites, and J Boats from 2019 to the present, featuring a fin with bulb and spade rudder hull. It measures 9.94 m LOA, 3.41 m in beam, and 1.99 m in draft, displacing 3817 kg. The J/99 offers an optional twin rudder and an all-lead deep fin keel. Aboard SEILmagasinet, Petter Gustafsson transitioned to a J/99 for double-handed offshore racing, targeting events like the Fastnet Race and Baltic 600, noting its competitive performance under the IRC rating rule compared to his previous J/111.16:17 Gustafsson secured an overall victory in the Færderseilasen 2025 regatta by employing a tactical route down the center of the fjord, executing approximately 100 jibes to maximize wind pressure and overtake competitors.24:40 He emphasizes real-time visual observation of wind conditions over complex data analysis for race success.25:25 For safety, regatta requirements for races like Færderseilasen mandate equipment such as two buckets with lanyards, a waterproof first-aid kit, a foghorn, a manual compass, and conical wooden plugs for through-hull fittings.5:03 Personal safety gear includes life jackets with crotch straps, lights, and spray hoods, which require annual inspection.14:10
