J/70 one-design sailboat- the ultimate trailerable sailing machine

New J/70 Hits the Water!!

The J/70 is undergoing sea trials on Narragansett Bay this week and throughout the Spring and we are being treated to some spectacular Spring sailing weather.  The new ramp-launchable keelboat (a first for J/Boats) is proving to be one special platform and we're very excited to have some new sailing photos to share which are now posted over at the J/70 site.  J/70 promises a new dimension of fun, fast sailing in a stable, easy to own boat that all of your friends and family can enjoy.  J/70's 22-foot long waterline with high aspect rig with all carbon mast and boom provides spirited performance and stability that feels like a much larger boat upwind. Off-the-wind, J/70 will simply light-up the crew with a smile!  Set the masthead a-sail and plane away in moderate breezes. 

Fleet discussions are underway in over a dozen locations in America and Europe.  Contact your J/Dealer now for a demo sail in Newport, Rhode Island in late spring/early summer to discover the excitement for yourself.  Learn more about the J/70 concept here.  J/70 is the choice of New York Yacht Club for the 2012 NYYC Invitational US Qualifying Series and is generating buzz everywhere, from London to San Diego, Chicago to Paris, Dusseldorf to Gothenburg... and the list goes on....

J/111 One-Design Speedster- Sail the Ultimate Sailboat for Sailors Who Love SailingJ/111 One-Design Speedster
2012 marks the first full season of J/111 one-design sailing around the world.  With numerous events organized in Europe (France and England) and in the USA (East Coast, Great Lakes, Pacific Coast), J/111 sailors will enjoy the camaraderie of sailing close, tactical racing around-the-buoys and in major offshore events.  In some instances, 111s will have the opportunity to win silverware in both one-design as well as handicap classes- proving this 36 foot speedster permits you to have "your cake and eat it too"-- unique amongst modern offshore sailboats.

J/111's  have established a remarkable sailing record offshore in the past twelve months.  Learn more about this extremely versatile, easy-to-sail, offshore racer-cruiser and, more importantly, join in on the fun and set your sights on one-design racing in the world's greatest sailing areas- Cowes, Newport, SPI Ouest, San Francisco, Great Lakes, Harbor Springs, to name a few.  Find out more about the J/111 and the one-design sailing regatta schedule here.
