J Boats J 35

Introducing the 1985 J35 Racing Yacht, a vessel that combines speed, performance, and a thrilling sailing experience. Immerse yourself in the world of competitive racing with this exceptional boat, boasting a wealth of features and meticulous care.

The initial three months of the current ownership were dedicated to a comprehensive restoration process, bringing the boat back to its full working order. Regular washing, re-sanding, and the application of a fresh anti-foul coat have been diligently carried out, ensuring the yacht remains in pristine condition and maintains its peak performance on the water.

Equipped with a Yanmar 3GM30F engine, which was replaced in 2014 but remained unused until 2020, this yacht offers both reliability and power. The owner's firsthand experience can attest that, when accompanied by the right crew, the J35 becomes a formidable force on the water.

With a rich history of careful ownership and maintenance, this vessel promises an exhilarating and successful racing experience. She is currently residing in Holyhead, U.K, ready for her next racing adventure.
