J/40 hull #1 is surprisingly for sale after the owners plans unexpectedly changed. This is the much anticipated addition to the J Boat line, following on the footsteps of the recently launched J/45. This design has already won Cruising World's 2025 Boat of the Year, as well as the European Yacht of the Year 2025. Additionally, it was recognized as one of SAIL Magazine's Top 10 Best Boats of 2025. It also won the Cruising World Boat of the Year: Best Full-Size Cruiser 40 to 45 Feet award. And now, Hull #1 is available at the beginning of the summer sailing season.

Prepared with the intention of cruising and racing, she has an Incidence main and jib, North Sails A2, a suite of B&G electronics featuring Nemesis displays at the companionway, and a race prepped bottom with sprayed on antifouling paint.
