PRICE IMPROVEMENT AS OF JUNE 14! All offers are welcome. The J-46 elevates performance cruising to a thrilling experience. It's easy for two people to manage her both upwind and down. Inside, the yacht boasts an elegantly designed interior finished in satin varnished cherry, reflecting its status as an investment-grade vessel. The layout includes two staterooms, two heads, and a spacious navigation station and galley. Offered by her original owner, this yacht has low hours and is fully equipped for comfortable cruising. The J-46 has evolved over ten years, drawing from the collective expertise of J Boats, TPI, and nearly 100 J-44 owners. The J-44 has been recognized as the world's most successful offshore 45-foot cruiser-racer, earning accolades like the Overall Boat of the Year from Sailing World Magazine in 1990. It's a proven champion, having won prestigious races such as the Fastnet, Sydney-Hobart, and two TransAtlantic races. Notably, the J-44 is the only yacht class to receive its own start in the Newport-Bermuda Race, awarded by the Cruising Club of America, highlighting its unmatched seaworthiness. The sleek hull is designed with the Rule of the Sea in mind, prioritizing performance over arbitrary rating rules. The J-46 inherits the seakindly hull shape of the J-44 but benefits from modern advancements in construction, keel and rudder design, and streamlined sail handling systems, making it an ideal offshore yacht. Two people can easily manage her upwind and down, achieving impressive 8-knot speeds under sail, comparable to motoring with a 76 hp diesel engine. Unlike many cruising yachts that sacrifice sailing comfort for dockside appeal, the J-46 stands apart with its design philosophy focused on sailing quality, balance, and crew comfort. Its elegant interior layout strikes a perfect balance between functional working space and cozy living quarters. The high length-to-beam ratio ensures stable tracking in rough seas, while the strategic buoyancy improves handling in following seas. The J-46 is adept at sailing with just a main or jib, showcasing its balance and versatility. Stability is enhanced by a lightweight carbon fiber mast, an SCRIMP-deck and hull construction, and a modern keel design featuring a lead bulb. TPI Composites has established itself as a leader with its patented SCRIMP molding system, resulting in a hull and deck laminate that is significantly stronger than traditional hand lay-up construction. Designed to fly a modern asymmetric spinnaker with ease, the J-46 features a clever setup that allows for safe handling from the cockpit. Experience the advantage of using a 100% jib or simply roll up the jib in stronger winds, while easily managing the mainsail. This yacht can be sailed solo with minimal effort. In a past race, five of her simpler J-44 predecessors outpaced all Swans between 48 and 61 feet, proving the remarkable sailing capabilities of this vessel. No other offshore cruising yacht of this size compares to the J-46's blend of seaworthiness, construction strength, performance, ease of handling, and liveaboard comfort.
