40' J Boats 1996

Carbon Rig Boat

A true racer/cruiser designed around the idea that a couple can go fast cruising at reasonable turn of speed but can be a competitive racer on the other hand. A fairly simple interior layout that features a good size galley, a spacious head, aft cabin and good storage.

Recent electronics and paint are prime features. A solid sail inventory. An all but turn key boat to race the Chicago -Mac, or Bayview -Mac. Both races recently featured J120 one-design sections.

New listing call for further information.
