Designed by Johnstone and built by J Boats Tillotson Pearson, this 24-footer represents a modern approach to small boat sailing with performance-oriented characteristics. Built from 2012 with approximately 50 hulls produced, the IC 24 features a contemporary fin keel configuration with a transom-hung rudder that provides responsive handling and efficient upwind performance. The boat's fractional sloop rig and moderate displacement of 3,100 pounds create an appealing balance between sailing performance and stability. With a beam of 8.75 feet and draft of 4.00 feet, the design offers good initial stability while maintaining the ability to access shallow waters and smaller harbors. The ballast-to-displacement ratio suggests decent stability characteristics for coastal sailing and day racing applications. The low comfort ratio of 12.57 and capsize screening formula of 2.4 indicate this boat prioritizes performance over cruising accommodations, making it well-suited for day sailing, club racing, and short coastal hops rather than extended cruising. The hull's waterline length of 20 feet allows for a theoretical hull speed of 5.99 knots, providing satisfying performance in moderate conditions. This fiberglass construction boat appeals to sailors seeking modern design elements and spirited sailing characteristics in a trailerable package.
