Sailboats - Daysailers

Navigator

Navigator was originally designed as a race trainer for club events, and this pedigree along with a rig more suited to cruising has resulted in a very capable and well mannered daysailer with room to carry six, or sleep two.  She is built from plywood using epoxy resin glues and is suitable for home boatbuilders who have some basic woodworking skills.This classically styled dayboat has three rig choices including a "perfomance" sloop, single big lugsail and a two masted "Yawl" rig which is the most popular and which gives the boat the ability to heave to head to wind, and with the mainsail down gives the boat under mizzen and jib a very effective "storm" rig should the boat be caught out.Some Navigators have been raced in mixed club fleets with considerable success, but most are family daysailers that go away camp cruising a couple of times a yearNavigators have completed some astonishing voyages, and is by far the most popular design in the JW range of  open cruising boats.
