J Boats J/46 - Major Price Reduction ($100k)

MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION OF $100k!!

The word "Bristol" too often gets hastily tossed around in our business with little to no truth or accuracy behind the bold claim.  I'll admit, I have been guilty of it myself in the past... but rest assured, when I say this boat is Bristol, believe me, there is no misrepresentation here.  The owner has spared no expense and the boat shows true pride of ownership.  A truly MUST-SEE!

The name J-Boats are synonymous with quality and craftsmanship, and easily conjure up images of highly capable, sleek, fast racing machines, but just as adept, some are equally competent cruisers, as this J/46 proves to be.  Designed to be a true dual purpose vessel, she can be a performance cruiser just as easily as a competitive racer without missing a beat.

The J/46 was awarded Sailing World "Boat of the Year" and featured in Sail Magazine's Top Ten. Praised for her sailing qualities and construction, with a lighter and stronger hull, a modern keel design with a lead bulb and carbon fiber mast, she has remarkable stability, comfort, and performance, yet can be easily managed by one or two people for short-handed cruising.

This beautiful example of a J/46 is hull #43 and was commissioned for the current/original owner back in '05 and sold new to him in '06.  Catered especially for So. Cal. waters and sailing conditions, she is being offered at $495k, and is ready for new owners and new adventures. 

Only one of 5 available in the entire country, this J/46 is a rare West Coast find, and will absolutely not disappoint, even the most discriminating of sailors.  From stem to stern, she boasts understated elegance, yet with her unique lines, she has as much attitude as she does sex appeal.

From her custom stainless steel gear everywhere, onboard generator, to her leisure furl boom, her powerful Yanmar diesel engine, beautiful cherry-wood interior, and well thought-out accommodations topside & below decks, this J/46 has all the makings of a luxury yacht, and then some.....
