The J/99 (32.6') is the ultimate sailing companion, expertly blending impressive performance and stability with cozy accommodations below deck, perfect for solo or duo sailing. Its thoughtfully designed deck layout and sail plan ensure effortless handling, while the spacious cockpit comfortably seats over 8 for enjoyable day sailing. Planning to embark on an exciting overnight race or cruise rally but short on crew? No worries! The J/99 promises exhilarating, high-speed sailing whether you're alone, with a partner, or with a full crew. Today’s sailors are drawn to thrilling signature events like the Fastnet, Middle Sea, and Chicago-Mac, where speed, sail handling, strategy, and weather routing are crucial. The J/99 is crafted to shine in such competitions, whether fully crewed or short-handed, while also offering the family-friendly experience that the J Sport range is celebrated for. Its versatile cockpit is perfect for both day cruising and racing, comfortably fitting up to 6 people. The deck features an array of optimized components, including a floating jib lead system, an 8:1 inhauler system, cockpit-led outhaul and cunningham, and a double-ended boom vang, all designed to enhance performance. The 48:1 cascading backstay system leads to both sides of the cockpit, while the two self-tailing primary winches are conveniently positioned for the helmsman. The J/99 is tiller steered with a choice of a single centerline balanced rudder or an optional twin rudder setup, ideal for offshore sailing with auto-pilot. An optional wheel package is also available. Below deck, the J/99 boasts a spacious interior with sleek lines and uncluttered areas. The main cabin features two full-length settee berths with optional flip-up pilot berths. The L-shaped galley is equipped for weekend getaways, including a stove, ice box, and an inboard sink with a pressure water system. A proper forward-facing nav station is situated to starboard, and the drop-leaf main cabin table is a valuable addition, typically found only on cruising models. The double aft cabins provide privacy with doors, and the layout allows 2-4 crew members to sleep on the windward side for optimal offshore weight distribution, accommodating up to 8 for inshore regattas or weekend trips. The forepeak is dedicated to the head and sail storage, remaining as light as possible. **J/99 Specification Features** - **High-Quality Composite Engineering & Construction:** The J/99 surpasses ISO 12215 standards for Category A offshore sailing. The hull and deck are robustly constructed by J/Composites of France using the SCRIMP resin-infusion process, ensuring superior strength and environmental integrity. - **AG+ Custom Mast Section:** The custom-engineered alloy mast section (anodized black) was developed specifically for the J/99. Its unique integral mainsail track accommodates both luff cars and bolt rope, reducing the need for fasteners and glue while enhancing stiffness for improved performance. - **Carbon Fiber Fixed Bow Sprit:** The J/99 introduces a fixed carbon bowsprit, easily removable and supported by a Dyneema bobstay, offering reduced weight and enhanced water protection for offshore sailing. - **Engineered Low VCG Keel:** The innovative low VCG keel, with a draft of 1.9m (6.5'), combines an encapsulated cast iron fin and lead wedge bulb for exceptional stability, similar to the J/112e and J/121. **J/99 Recognition and Awards** The J/99's outstanding performance has garnered acclaim from the yachting press, earning accolades like SAIL's Best Boats - Performance Award, SAILING WORLD's Boat of the Year - Best Crossover Boat, and the British Yachting Awards - Performance Yacht award.
