(Stockholm, Sweden)- The J/70 continues to garner accolades from
knowledgeable sailors around the world. In particular, Europe is seeing
a significant uptick in one-design J/70 activity with more countries
and more fleets developing across the Continent.
This past month the Swedish yachting press selected the J/70 as Sweden’s
Boat of the Year, citing its scintillating performance, family-friendly
boat-handling characteristics, easy transportability and extraordinary
value relative to all other sportboats in the market today.
Here is J/Dealer Peter Johansson from Marstrand Yachts accepting the award at the boat show in Sweden. For reference, here’s the original article written in Swedish about the J/70’s qualities (translated into English). For more J/70 sailboat information
