J Boats at Cannes Yachting Festival

27th August 2022

The J45

It’s not long to go until Cannes Yachting Festival kicks off. We will be there at Cannes with all four of our boat brands; Nautitech, Grand Soleil, J Boats and Tofinou.

We are excited to be at the festival with J Boats, showcasing the J/45 after her premiere last year at the festival, alongside the J/99.

J/Boats are easily controlled, forgiving, and sea-kindly but at the same time incredibly exciting to sail and race. The advanced composite construction ensures that for their size, these boats are faster, lighter, and stronger than their contemporaries.

The J/45 is a true sailing yacht, designed and built for the sea by dedicated life-long sailors. The J/45’s feather-light touch on the helm and easy reach of the sail controls delivers pure enjoyment as you sail in perfect balance through the waves while everyone else aboard relaxes.

The J/99The J/99

The J/99 combines great sailing performance and stability with below-deck comfort that can be sailed by just one or two people. Want to jump into the next adventure-style overnight race or cruise rally? No problem, the J/99 does it all. Easy, high-speed sailing whether solo, twin, or with the whole crew.

If you’re interested in the J/45 or J/99 or any other model from the J Boat range, then why not join us at Cannes to talk all things J.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
