Truth or Dare

fter a successful Rhode Island launch and rave reviews from all-comers, J/70 production is underway and the first boats are already sailing in Chesapeake Bay, the Carolinas, Texas, Long Island Sound, Newport, Seattle, Florida, Maine, Oregon (Cascade Locks!), New Jersey, the Great Lakes (Erie, Ontario and Michigan) and Nova Scotia. In the next few weeks more J/70's will be sailing around Europe (United Kingdom & France).

This new ramp-launchable keelboat (a first for J/Boats) is proving to be one special platform and we're excited to share more details and sailing photos on 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.

Be sure to contact your J/Dealer to check on the launching of the J/70 in your area, or to set up a demo-sail in Newport, RI at J-Boats headquarters. 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 will debut the first J/70 Midwinters at Quantum Key West Race Week in January 2013!
