J/46 - ARIEL

You have to see Ariel to understand the cruising comfort of this J 46 and the level of quality this boat has been restored to. This J 46 has been owned and maintained by two owners that understand what it means to keep a yacht at the highest standards The J 46 is a luxury cruising sailboat with the performance of a race boat. The owner has restored this boat to showroom quality. Easily handled by a couple but accommodations to handle three couples comfortably. All the comforts of home including a very large galley with a separate freezer, a large cookstove, and microwave oven. Think of the luxury of having a stand-up shower with a 12 gallon hot water heater when doing extended cruising (Nearshore and offshore) The step on transom allows for easy boarding off your rib (including dogs). New performance designed sails keep you safe and give you the ability to get you there fast. A custom dodger and bimini keep you warm and dry. The Award-winning J/46.. an Elegant Yacht for Effortless Cruising J/46 may be the only investment-grade sailing yacht of its size not requiring professional crew to sail at designed performance levels…..or to maintain. Two people can easily manage her upwind and down to achieve the same 8-knot passage-making speeds under sail that is possible when motoring with a 76hp diesel auxiliary. The joy of sailing the perfect boat is, after all, a goal we believe every owner ultimately seeks. To ensure that good sailing days are spent sailing rather than scrubbing and varnishing, J/46 is designed to be virtually maintenance-free. Her exquisite joiner work is protected from the sun……below decks where it’s beauty can be preserved.
