2026 J Boats J9

The J9 is a 28-foot sailing yacht built by J Boats with a fiberglass hull and an 8.5-foot beam. Designed for short-handed sailing, it features a spacious cockpit suited to a crew and day sailing. The boat carries a diesel Yanmar engine and cruises at 6 knots.

Sail handling is straightforward. A furling jib and lazy-jacks allow quick deployment and stowing, making it easy to get underway without excessive deck work. The layout includes one head for onboard convenience.
