The J/24 is an international One-Design and Midget Ocean Racing Club trailerable keelboat class built by J/Boats and defined by World Sailing. [1] The J/24 was created to fulfill the diverse needs of recreational sailors such as cruising, one design racing, day sailing, and handicap racing.

The Model J/24 is still the same well-deserved 1977 model 24. It is still produced on the principle of “the best is the enemy of the good” with the same contours, weapons, and – most importantly! – exactly with the same displacement. This is the true meaning of one design.
