There are delivery slots available for current models in the J Boats range, including the J/112E, J/99 and the new J/45; you could be cruising or racing in time for next season.
The J/112E is a highly versatile and sporty cruising boat that is becoming more popular in the performance cruiser market. The J/112E “ValenTina” hit the water in June 2023 and has had a good first season in Irish waters.
The efficient set up and design of the J/112E provides ample sail power in light winds and easy down-shift options when the wind builds, making for fun and fast sailing whether cruising or racing. This J model is meant to offer a new alternative to the classic J Boats J/109. Delivery slots are currently still available for the end of May 2024.

The J/99 is a modern development on the proven J Boats design DNA. Designed with the versatility to succeed in crewed racing, doublehanded, offshore races, inshore racing or fun family cruising.
With an easy-to-use sailplan, ergonomic cockpit layout, and spacious cockpit seating combined with simple but comfortable accommodation.
You could be racing a J/99 for next season, with delivery slots available for April 2024. The J/99 class is growing in the UK, and the J/99 ‘Snapshot’ has undoubtedly set the standards in Irish waters.
Delivery is available for May if purchased now.
