J COMPOSITES J/112E – Vintage 2020 – 1st hand
Cruising racing sailboat known for its performance under sail, its balance and its comfort when cruising.
This unit is in remarkable condition, both outside and inside, with particularly well-preserved woodwork and upholstery. Its low number of engine hours and its complete equipment make it a particularly interesting J/112E for a fast cruising program as well as for an owner looking for good performance under sail.
Powered by a Volvo Penta 30 HP with Saildrive transmission, it totals only 327 hours.
The electronics are based on an NKE control unit complete with a loch-speedometer, depth sounder, wind vane-anemometer, NKE Gyropilot and remote control. The equipment also includes an ICOM VHF with GPS, a Class B AIS transmit/receive system, a USB/Wi-Fi box and an EPIRB Ocean Signal beacon.
The sail plan and fittings perfectly match the J/112E's high-performance programme: full-batten membrane mainsail, membrane genoa, Solent, Gennaker, tormentin, retractable carbon bowsprit, staysail chain, ROD standing rigging, AG+ aluminium mast and boom, Harken mainsail rail and winches, including an electric winch.
On board, the boat offers 2 cabins and 4 berths, beautiful leather upholstery, 4 kW heating, a 90 L Isotherm refrigerator, two-burner stove with oven, 25 L water heater and a toilet.
The cockpit is equipped with a companionway canopy, a shower head and a Lewmar 700 W electric windlass. The offshore armament is completed by a Plastimo Transocean ISO 9650-1 life raft for 6 people.
On the energy side, it has 2 AGM service batteries of 160 Ah, a 72 Ah motor battery and a Cristec Ypower 25 A charger.
A very well equipped and remarkably preserved J/112E, combining the qualities sought on this model: performance, helm pleasure, build quality and true comfort when cruising.
