J/145 OWNER GUIDE 10
single boom block, back down to the second block on the traveler car, and out to the other deck block and
finally to the other winch. The system is designed to allow extremely easy adjustments of the mainsheet
by any size or age person. The self-tailing winch feature also facilitates single-handed sailing and rapid
adjustments during sailing maneuvers. Be sure to put a “stopper knot” at both ends of the sheet.
Traveler: consists of a traveler track and traveler car mounted in the cockpit. The car is controlled by a
7:1 purchase system led to either side of the cockpit. The traveler control line dead-ends outboard on the
becket of the control block, then runs back and forth between the traveler car and end fitting, finishing at
the “head-knocker” cleat assembly mounted just forward and outboard of the traveler track.
Reef Lines: are designed to be fully functional from the cockpit. The system includes a single line reef
system and an additional clew & tack reef. Please refer to the rigging diagram for details.
Outhaul: is 18:1 internal tackle system pre-assembled by Hall Spars and cleated on the underside of the
boom.
Backstay: A Sailtec hydraulic backstay and vang adjusters are included with the J/145 to enable you to
control the upwind shape of the mainsail by bending the mast and tensioning the leech of the main. The
pump and release valve on the two function panel mounted on forward face of pedestal in the cockpit
control the operation.
Jib/Genoa Controls
Jib/Genoa Halyards: exit the mast on the port and starboard sides of the mast and run through a turning
block at the mast collar aft to the forward halyard winches. (see Halyard Layout Diagram).
Jib/Genoa Sheets: are attached to the headsail with large J-Lock shackles. For a small jib, lead the
sheet inboard of the shrouds, through the jib or genoa car on the track then aft to the primary winches. If
a large genoa is used, the sheets lead outboard of the shrouds and to then to the winch. The J/145 is
equipped with two “stand-up” Harken blocks outboard of the cockpit. These are designed to deflect the
genoa sheet around the dodger when the dodger is rigged.
Jib/Genoa Blocks & Tracks: are located port and starboard along the cabin sides. Adjustable pin stop
jib lead blocks are supplied for the forward in board & outboard tracks and can double as outboard cars
for the genoa if necessary. The genoa system is standard with a Harken adjustable system to allow fine
adjustment while racing or under load.
Spinnaker Equipment
Spinnaker Halyards: exit each side of the mast and lead through a turning block at the mast collar to the
forward halyard winches to port and starboard.
Spinnaker Sheets: attaches to the clew of the spinnaker with Tylaska T-12 shackles and leads aft
outside the lifelines through the spinnaker sheet blocks (just in front of the stern pushpit), forward through
the double foot blocks, then to either the cabin top or primary winches. When hooking up the
asymmetrical spinnaker the windward (or lazy) sheet should be led in front of the headstay.
Tack Line: The tack line leads from the spinnaker clew through a Harken 75mm block on the bow sprit
and aft to a rope clutch forward of the starboard halyard winch.
Bow Sprit Control Line: The Bow Sprit Control Line leads from large padeye thru-bolted on forward
bulkhead below deck, through the blocks on the bow sprit back through the bulkhead into anchor locker
area, through the deck and aft through bullseye fairleads to rope clutch forward of starboard halyard
winch.
