In June 2017, the 35th America’s Cup in Bermuda will be graced by the J Class fleet. These majestic titans of sail competed for the Cup during the 1930s and are perhaps still some of the most famous yachts afloat.
Since the J Class Assn (JCA) was founded, five replica J Class yachts, built to original designs in modern materials, have launched and a sixth is due to join the fleet in January 2017. Many J Class races are decided by seconds, thanks to a handicap system developed by the JCA to allow the modern and original Js to compete fairly.
