Enjoy this fun video of the new J/45 Acadia undergoing sailing trials and tuning on Narragansett Bay.

She effortlessly cruises well into the 8.5 to 9.5+ knot range depending on the point of sail in just 15 kts of breeze... remarkable performance for a 45 ft offshore cruising yacht loaded down with every amenity a bluewater cruiser could ever wish for, e.g. air conditioning, heating, freezers, wine cooler, carbon boom mainsail furler, real teak decks, and 10 kW diesel generator, to name just a few items on her long list of luxury options.
