Introducing the new J/7 Daysailer for 2025

by J-Boats 20 Dec 2024 08:08 PST

J/Boats is pleased to introduce the NEW J/7, a modern 23' (7.0m) family daysailer with huge, sit-in cockpit, easy-to-handle sail plan, and built-in stability that's second to none in the size range.

This is the perfect sized daysailer - roomy enough to bring the whole gang, and small enough to tow home behind a mid-sized SUV.

Double Your Sailing Days

There's beauty in simplicity, and with the J/7, it couldn't be simpler. With one hand on the tiller and the other on the main sheet, one can happily sail all day. All sail controls are within reach of the cockpit, and an adjustable backstay allows instant flattening of the sails in puffy conditions. With the J/7's exceptional stability one can carry the main and small jib across a wide range of conditions. The J/7 also excels under mainsail alone, meaning more opportunities to sail when most others stay home. This versatility will double your days on the water next season.

Sailing in Comfort and Style

The J/7's cockpit comfort rivals that of the larger J/9 (28') - known to have the most comfortable cockpit of any J ever. On the J/7, five-plus can find comfy places to relax, and four adults can sit on the same side while sailing upwind. The walk-through swim platform is added bonus space - perfect for hanging out, dragging your feet in the water, or as a secure platform for teaching. Visibility from the helm (while seated) is excellent, thanks to the high boom and the sleek cabin profile that still provides protection from the elements for those sitting in the forward corner seats.
