JPK 1030 test: The intuitive French flier that’s easy for couples to control

• August 15, 2019

Pip Hare feels right at home on the JPK 1030 – a quick, no-nonsense boat that’s ideal for short-handers

Product Overview

Manufacturer:, price as reviewed:.

You know the feeling when you meet an old friend and just pick up where you left off – there is no small talk, the conversation flows and you get straight into discussing the meaningful things in life? Sailing the JPK 1030 was just like that.

It felt incredibly familiar: every rope and every footrest was where I expected it to be. There was no need for a warm up, we just stepped aboard, the water ballast went in, the main traveller went up and we were on the pace without a second thought.

This freshly launched model from the Lorient-based boatbuilders is set to replace the successful JPK 1010 and had been afloat for just ten days at the time of my test.

There is plenty of space for crew to sit behind the helming position and the mainsail can be trimmed from there, allowing an uninterrupted view for the helmsman

At first glance you can see the 1030 is squarely focussed at the short-handed sailing audience. The hull is powerful, with high topsides, a full-length chine and a full but not radical bow. The cockpit has a clear, functional layout, with minimal seating so crew would be forced to sit either on the rail or behind the helm.

The boat is straightforward and simple but that simplicity demonstrates a wealth of design knowledge and experience of what the short-handed sailor needs. Following a quick tour of the boat, we set sail and allowed the JPK 1030 to speak for itself.

King of trim

Helming the 1030 upwind was easy and fun. In 18 knots of true wind we carried a full mainsail and a J2, using the 300 litres of water ballast. The helm was light and the boat easy to control in gusts. Filling the water ballast gave a significant boost to performance – we heeled less, picked up speed and the boat became less twitchy in the gusts.

J/99 review: All thrills, no frills on board this double-handed racing machine

We ghosted down the Hamble River under mainsail alone, the water slipping silently past our red hull in the grainy…

European Yacht of the Year 2019: Special yachts

This category assembles a varying mix of interesting craft, many of which we might otherwise not have had the chance…

The single backstay proved a powerful tool for trimming the test boat’s carbon mast and I sat happily playing both backstay and traveller while steering to maximise our upwind potential. JPK has opted to keep the head of the mainsail small enough to pass through a single backstay, helped by a good length mast crane on the carbon Axxon rig projecting the stay further back in the boat.

The tiller is mounted forward in the cockpit and two large carbon footrests sit convivially next to each other to allow a second sailor to sit behind the helm. This makes it more comfortable for crew to keep weight aft when the spinnaker is up and also gives the helm an uninterrupted view of oncoming conditions, even when the main is being trimmed. For a yacht this size, trimming the main from behind the helming position makes a lot of sense.

All controls, mainsheet, traveller and backstay are easily accessed from either seated position without interrupting each other. Despite lumpy conditions the steering position remained dry, however there would be no protection from oncoming waves in a big sea – during these times it would be important to strike the right balance between staying dry(ish) and hand-steering the boat.

Tiller is mounted forward in the cockpit. Large carbon footrests allow helmsman and crew to maintain a secure, comfortable seating position

With the autopilot on, an on-watch skipper could sit behind the coachroof on one of the small seats and afford at least some shelter from the elements.

The water ballast on the JPK 1030 uses a no-nonsense system, employing a central scoop, with large diameter transfer pipe, and gate valves which can be operated from the cockpit. Filling takes two minutes, and transferring a matter of seconds. This is easy-to-use ballast at its best – simple and effective.

Upwind speed was impressive and the groove easy to find. We quickly accelerated to over seven knots and even with the ballast on the wrong side of the boat before a tack the helm remained easy to handle.

Tacking itself is a swift procedure on the JPK 1030 – the helmsman eases the mainsheet a touch, while the crew lifts the two gate valves in the cockpit floor to allow the water ballast to drop down to leeward. As soon as the leeward overflow pipe spits, tack the boat, helmsman passing over the back of the tiller, crew taking all the room forward. Out of the tack with the water ballast on the new windward side the boat is powered up quickly.

The jib is controlled using a transverse genoa track and separate inhaulers

Aft of the main traveller, a large top-opening lazarette gives roomy access to the tops of the rudders and the autopilot rams – great for troubleshooting. The test boat also had a rope system that allows the adjustment of rudder toe from on deck – a neat feature, which is managed on other twin rudder boats by sailors crawling into small spaces at the transom and winding on bottlescrews.

Adjusting the alignment of twin rudders is a racing essential which may not seem important to the cruising sailor, but bringing this adjustment onto the deck is a clever move for gaining that extra half a knot of speed.

Off the breeze the JPK 1030 is like poetry. The asymmetric spinnaker flies from a retractable bowsprit, which adds another half a metre onto the boat when extended. There is plenty of power in this little boat. We were able to catch and stay on waves, prolonging surfing time with the helm responding to every tiny twitch.

Asymmetric spinnaker is flown from a retractable bowsprit

Even when reaching under spinnaker, I felt fully in control of the boat. When the tiller did load up, an ease of the kicker had us back on our feet again and flying down the waves. We recorded a top speed of 13.8 knots, which is impressive for a 33-footer.

There is plenty of room for crew to sit behind the helm downwind to keep the bow up. The spinnaker sheets cross the cockpit to a winch just in front of the helming position and can be easily trimmed while driving. Inside gybing even in 20 plus knots of breeze was smooth.

The traveller comes up to windward, you surf down a wave, gybe the spinnaker – there is plenty of room between the forestay and the spinnaker luff to pull the sail through – then once the kite is full on the new side, pick another wave and flip the mainsail over.

Symmetrical sense

Below decks the JPK 1030 is smooth and functional. There are no frills but it is nicely built and, due to the lack of forward bulkhead, the interior feels roomy. The bow contains a double berth and there is provision to put a further double in the port aft cabin with the heads and a pilot berth to starboard. As our test boat was fitted with water ballast, the two aft cabins each contained single pilot berths.

The most notable feature of the interior is the dual navigators’ stations, with ergonomic U-shaped seats on each side of the boat. The main nav station was to starboard, however a second screen was fitted over the galley on the port side, with the fridge lid providing a flat surface, which would suffice as a desk.

This allows monitoring of navigation from a comfortable position on either side of the boat and made me reflect a little on how sensible it is to have two positions from which the boat’s progress, AIS or radar can be monitored below decks.

There is a smooth sophistication about the JPK 1030 – it is well-designed, well-built and demonstrates a deep understanding of the needs of a short-handed sailor. The boat is fun to sail but it’s also serious and I have no doubt this boat will be in demand on the double-handed circuit. It is more expensive than the competition in this field and it’s not going to be easy to get your hands on a new one; the current lead-time for a new boat is 14 to 16 months. Is the long wait and the extra cost worth it? To me it is; the value of a well-thought-out, easy-to-use boat for short-handed sailing makes for a more pleasant sailing experience, with less mistakes and the ability to keep on going for longer.

Jpk 1010 is a 32 ′ 9 ″ / 10 m monohull sailboat designed by Jacques Valer and built by JPK Composites starting in 2011.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

SA: Mainsail 33m2/355 sq.ft. Genoa 25m2/269 sq.ft. Asymmetric spinnaker 95m2/1023 sq.ft. Symmetric spinnaker 85m2/915 sq.ft.

JPK: A SAILING LEGEND, INNOVATION AND AWARDS

• 15 June 2023

• history of the construction sites , JPK

The creation of JPK: Jean-Pierre Kelbert’s passion for sailing propels him to success

JPK is a French shipyard specialising in the construction of high-performance sailing yachts. Founded by Jean-Pierre Kelbert, the company takes its name from the initials of its founder. Jean-Pierre Kelbert is a renowned yachtsman and naval architect, renowned for the quality and performance of his boats.

Jean-Pierre Kelbert has had a passion for sailing since childhood, and has steadily progressed over the years. His talents led him to win the titles of European Champion in 1988 and 1989. He also came second in the Olympic selection for the 1988 Seoul Games.

In 1992, as an experienced rider and trainer, Jean-Pierre Kelber launched JPK Composites, a company dedicated to the creation of top-of-the-range epoxy sandwich boards. He surrounded himself with a passionate team, including Jean-Michel, who remains his trusted partner to this day. JPK stands out for the manufacture of high-performance boards, which are entrusted to renowned windsurfing champions.

JPK’s evolution: from dominating competitions to diversifying into high-performance sailboats

Over the years, the yard has won numerous awards, including :

• French Champion
• World champion
• World speed record holder for 8 years

In 2002, the shipyard turned its attention to the world of sailing boats.

The idea was to design a high-performance, versatile and fun cruising yacht capable of winning under IRC rules.

Working with naval architect Jacques Valer, the first JPK 960 was launched in March 2003.

From the very first year of racing, this boat truly revolutionised the IRC world, with a planing style that was just as effective in coastal races (Spi Ouest France/Atlantic Trophy) as it was offshore (Transquadra/Fastnet).

Also, the models to follow, such as the JPK 110 (2005), JPK 4 0 (2008) and JPK 998 (2009), were very promising boats whose destiny was thwarted. Very high IRC penalties, withdrawal of the offer or no racer.

JPK yachts: record-breaking sailing legends

The JPK 1010 yacht stands out for its masterly victories in the Transquadra in 2006, 2009, 2012 and 2015, as well as the 2013 Fasnet.

Alongside the RACER range, the JPK shipyard launched the FAST CRUISER range, marking the birth of the JPK 38 in April 2012. This yacht was a great success, winning the title of Yacht of the Year 2013.

The new JPK 1080 model, launched in March 2014, had a perfect season, winning the Rolex Fasnet Race and the legendary Sydney Hobart in historic fashion. These exceptional performances earned her the title of European Boat of the Year 2015.

What’s more, the yacht is proving to be a fantastic boat both single-handed and double-handed, coming first and second in the Tranquadra 2018.

The JPK 1010 , JPK 38 and JPK 1080 embody the JPK shipyard’s constant quest for excellence and performance, as it continues to write its legend in the world of sailing. These yachts are the fruit of exceptional know-how and bear witness to JPK’s ongoing commitment to innovation and quality.

The triumphant evolution of JPK yachts: performance, awards and innovations

In 2016, the Fast Cruising range reached a new milestone with the introduction of the JPK 45 FC . Following on from the success of the JPK 38 FC , the JPK 45 FC is specially designed to meet the needs of long-distance voyages. Featuring a versatile design and a solid yet lightweight construction, the JPK 45 caused a sensation and was awarded the prestigious title of Sailboat of the Year 2016.

In 2018, the Racers range was extended with the arrival of the JPK 1180 , designed for the IRC 2 and IRC 1 categories.

In 2019, the JPK 1030 marks a major turning point in Jacques Valer’s architectural approach. The aim is to design a yacht capable of shining in single-handed offshore races while being outnumbered. The JPK 1030 immediately caused a sensation in the Fastnet 2019, winning the double-handed race by an impressive margin of more than 5 hours. Her exceptional performance also continued in 2021 with further victories.

In 2021, the JPK 39 FC perfectly embodies the alliance between a cruising yacht and the know-how of a competition shipyard. The many qualities of the JPK 39 FC have been recognised by two prestigious awards: Sailboat of the Year 2022 and European Yacht of the Year 2022.

JPK : Nautical excellence combining performance, innovation and awards

JPK is a brand that stands out for the excellence of its yachts. Its spirit of innovation and numerous awards bear witness to the shipyard’s constant commitment to pushing back the limits of sailing.

Currently, the JPK teams, based in Larmor-Plage, are working with passion on the construction of sailing yachts:

Since it was founded, the JPK brand has forged a solid reputation in the field of racing-cruising yachts by offering boats at the cutting edge of innovation, competitive on the nautical scene and sought after by sailing enthusiasts.

THE JPK LEGEND

Happy owners is my goal

Jean Pierre Kelbert is an acclaimed sailor winning two European windsurfer titles in consecutive years. This grass roots understanding of the dynamics of sailing is the platform of the now famous range of IRC winning yachts.

Victories in single and double handed racing has established Jean-Pierre among the legendary French sailors.

Jean Pierre Kelbert’s yachts are now confirmed at the peak of IRC racing, winning all major European and UK regattas with the JPK 10.10’s, JPK 10.80’s and JPK11.80’s.

As Jean Pierre said “happy owners is my goal” which is reflected by the numerous podium results the JPK brand has achieved.

The amazing performance of the JPK 11.80 “Courrier Recommandé” winning IRC overall in the tough and very competitive 2018 Middle Sea race confirms the smiling faces of happy owners.

Jean-Pierre is at the helm of the business with sailing expertise and technical know-how complimented by the iconic naval architect Jacques Valer. This combination has delivered a winning formula for the ever expanding fleet of JPK owners.

All the optimisations carried out on the JPK 1010 have made it possible to progress each year to achieve the perfect season in 2013:  SNIM, spi Ouest France, Giraglia, Tour of the Isle of Wight, Cowes Week, Atlantic Trophy double, RORC Championship, Atlantic Duo and in climax a historic double in the Fastnet won by the tandem Alexis and Pascal Loison.

The JPK 10.80 takes full advantage of all the developments made on the 1010. Jacques Valer, our architect, called the "magician", did not forget any detail of the project to realize a perfectly balanced and optimized "machine" able to win in IRC 2 in all the race formats and whatever the crew configuration.

Loyal to the "spirit of the IRC rule" the boat nevertheless retains a degree of finish and interior equipment consistent with a boat of this size.  Unbeatable in racing, bright and stylish on deck and inside, the 10.80 represents the best of our know-how, from a team of technicians and passionate sailors.

Naval architect J. Valer

• LOA 10,80 m
• Displacement 4,8 t
• Volvo engine 30 cv
• Draft 2,20 m
• Genoa 33 m²
• Asy spinnaker 120 m²
• Symetric spinnaker 105 m²

Racing machine

A few months after its launch, the boat has already shown great potential.  True to his "magic" style of drawing, Jacques Valer has once again succeeded in  the challenge of an extremely competitive hull with a smooth and forgiving behavior  and impressive stability.

Results inshore or offshore  are the best proof of this.

The 10.80 benefits from the optimisation work carried out on the 1010 with a design that is accurate in terms of performance but tolerant and reliable in terms of sea keeping. It is a "light" and lively IRC that performs well for its size.

The hull is especially optimised to combine high power for performance in breezes and low drag for speed in light airs and open wind performance.

The deck layout has been designed for efficiency and comfort, with a very well designed steering position (coamings angled forward).

All the fittings are designed for maximum efficiency and versatility between full crew and single/double crew operation.

Tired of getting sprayed and stupidly chilled on watch, we designed a sliding bubble to protect the companionway.

Sitting on the companionway, it offers a perfect watch from the wind and spray with a translucent panel to check the sails and the course. In strong winds, upwind, it perfectly protects the descent from the spray and secures the instruments on the chart table.

When the conditions are right again, you slide it forward and the companionway is back to normal. On crewed inshore races, it can be dismantled in 2 minutes and the genoa inhaulers can be swapped in the middle.

Similarly, the floors are covered with a translucent anti-slip material and the handrails are placed at the "natural" gripping points.

Inside, everything has been thought out for the quality of life while sailing.

The open roof allows you to rest on the port and starboard side with a panoramic view of the outside. Combined with the frame bunks for stacking or sleeping for the crew during the race and a "wet" area for storing sails and gear, the concept responds to the pleasure of cruising by its simplicity, its modernity and its clarity.

Lange bevor die Walkman erfunden wurden, habe ich mit diesem Gerät beim Skifahren Radio gehört: einfach den Empfänger unter die Pelzmütze auf den Kopf gelegt und los gings! Der grosse Nachteil war, dass ich meinen Kopf jeweils nach dem Sender ausrichten musste... Ich weiss noch genau, die konnte man bei der Technik KG in Bremen bestellen, für ca. 27 DM. Die Firma hat jeweils im "Hobby" in den Kleininseraten inseriert und hatte einen ähnlich umfangreichen Katalog wie damals RIM. Ich kann mich auch noch genau an den Innenaufbau des verleimten Gerätchens erinnern: eine kaum briefmarkengrosse Dickfilmschaltung. An einer Kante der Schaltung sitzen schön aufgereiht 6 diskrete Transistörchen, an der anderen Kante eine winzige Ferritantenne. Der Drehko ist ein Trimmer, der eigentlich ausserhalb des Gehäuses sitzt, in einem hohlen Knopf. Wer ein solch seltenes Gerät besitzt: Vorsicht! Die grösste Schwachstelle ist das Kopfhörerkabel, direkt bei der Ausführung aus dem Gerät. Bricht die dünne Litze dort, ist eine Reparatur kaum möglich. Franz
