Features The original owner made multiple trips to the factory and with his engineering background made several online improvements over standard boats. His only use of the boat was daysailing and cruising. We sold her to owner #2 as a "just until" boat while he was awaiting his J/124 and again she was used just to daysail and in one "beer can" race. Owner #3 purchased her as a larger gentlemans' daysailor and added the Leisure Furl System but has been unable to use the boat; she stayed in dry storage in '07. The boat has never been grounded and never in a collision.

Remarks The J/105 is one of the most popular and innovative 35 footers ever conceived, and this one is a rare find as it has been only day sailed and lightly cruised, just 1 race!! Great attention to detail was paid during this J/105's building process and continued through her fitting out. It is an immense value and loads of fun at a great price. Plus, new in '07 and never used is a Leisure Furl System, new North main and Lewmar 40ST electric halyard winch. Essentially she is set up as a premiere gentleman's daysailor.
