Design
The Mini JOD is a very small and light racing keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, with two sets of unswept spreaders and aluminum spars with continuous stainless steel wire rigging and a roller furling jib. There is a retractable aluminum bowsprit. The hull has a nearly plumb stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a lifting keel with a weighted bulb. It displaces 419 lb (190 kg) and has a maximum crew weight of 265 lb (120 kg) allowing crewing by one adult and one child.[1][2][5]
The boat has a draft of 2.62 ft (0.80 m) with the keel extended and 1.18 ft (0.36 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][2][5]
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with an asymmetrical spinnaker of 132.40 sq ft (12.300 m2), flown from the retractable bowsprit.[1][2][5]
The design has a hull speed of 4.97 kn (9.20 km/h).[2]
