We are very proud that many of our yachts have won European Yacht of the Year. Today we are featuring the J/40. After winning awards for Best Boat of the Year from Sail Magazine, Voile Magazine, and Yachting World, the J/40 won 2025 European Yacht of the Year in the Performance Cruiser category.
The New J/40 is an offshore-capable, high performance cruising yacht capable of double-digit speeds with exceptional comfort, both in port and at sea. This yacht boldly pushes the envelope on performance, versatility of use, and cruising comfort.
As one of the judges says: "this yacht will not stop inspiring. It is particularly impressive in terms of longitudinal dynamics. And, it is also impressive in terms of cruising comfort. Anyone who values performance over luxury should take a closer look at the J/40." "Its timeless aesthetics make it stand out from the crowd. When the sails are up, it's even more impressive: with awesome performance and an almost inspiring lightness of feel."
