Description

DARKWOOD J121 is now for sale.This Iconic, high level J121 has been professionally maintained for her one owner since new.With ambitions to compete both inshore and offshore, the J121 provided a fun, fast and competitive platform, but essentially for this owner, a genuine ability to sail the boat with a shorter-handed crew that did not compromise her performance under the rating rules. Also equipped with an optimized racing IRC keel, on top of the boats water ballast system and multitude of smart sail handling systems, this is one of the highest spec J/Boats we have ever seen!That investment from owner and crew since launching has pushed the boats performance to new levels and her results list is something quite special for any owner.Now located in Malta stored ashore, she is ready for her next adventure and offered in turn-key condition.
