From its large carbon wheel to the fine teak joinery
work and Ultra-leather or suede upholstery below, or
simply by the smooth, graceful way it slides through the
water, the new J/124 is every bit a sailing
yacht… in the best sense of the word. One that is a joy
to sail in all conditions with minimal crew and with
rare need to employ the auxiliary diesel engine.
Yet, the J/124’s focus on short-handed sailing
qualities doesn’t preclude many days of offshore coastal
sailing. Her narrow beam and low centre-of-gravity are
hallmarks of seaworthiness.
The J/124 is a true escape…away from all the
trappings and chores of home. Little-used amenities and
complex cruising systems are discouraged where possible.
But, all the important stuff is there: An adequate
galley and chart table; the accessible top-loading
icebox; 6 feet of headroom; three separate sleeping
areas; a dodger for all-weather protection; and a
cockpit made secure with 14” high backrests and seats
that are long enough to sleep on.
The high-tech composite hull evolves from Js that have
dominated IRC competition in Europe over the past three
years. The Hall Spars mast and ACC rudder are carbon
fibre. Easiest configuration of all is the optional and
removable Hoyt self-tacking jib boom with roller furling
jib. If the joy of sailing is a priority…that feel of
acceleration and response of a good boat…but you still
want to enjoy some overnight comfort on those yacht club
cruises, then this is the “J” for you.
