REMARKABLE RAINBOW - A J CLASS YACHT THAT WILL MAKE YOU DREAM!!! 

It really is. The interior design is stunning! I felt quite privileged to go out sailing on her.

I felt the same way until I started looking into multihulls sinking from hitting something that monohulls would survive.

J class says it all.

You can’t beat a j class

@@satguy lol.

Scorpios is probably the closest thing built today, conceptually. Definitely not as much of a comfort option outside of racing however.

De jongens die zoveel uit te geven hebben gaan voor iets nieuws. Originele j boten bestaan niet meer. Blijven copyright.

Thanks so much. Such a beautiful yacht, doing it justice is almost impossible!

Yes, sailing...if you want to go in one direction you should always point the yacht in a DIFFERENT direction! I must admit though, I'd never seen the fascination in the America's Cup until I filmed this video. Now I'm hooked!

Yes, wish that all of the yachts were that easy to write about!

I suppose the big compromise is that being designed like an american defender, she isn't really designed for trans atlantic passages; she'd be very wet on deck in a storm with no protection and minimal freeboard. Though, I imagine you could still make it work.

Thanks Nathan!

Thank YOU for watching. New Zealand has such an incredible history in the America's Cup!!!

Dream come true. She is now owned by a NZer

Thanks Cecil, glad you enjoyed the video!

Thanks for watching. I'm keen to learn more about the America's Cup, I've hardly even scratched the surface yet. So many great stories surrounding it. Nice idea about the pipe...I might just do that!

@@Yachtsforsaleblog I know only a little about the 1983 races held in Newport Rhode Island simply because it was Australia who were the challengers and there was a massive amount of hype that really did capture the entire nation. Alan Bond, who was from Western Australia was the person behind the effort providing the money and getting the team together. He was a multi millionaire who made his money originally from property development. The yacht itself was designed by Ben Lexcen and the big surprise was its famous winged keel. A lot of the hype around the whole thing apart from the fact that the US had not been defeated for 132 years, was to do with this as it was kept secret. Every time they lifted the boat out of the water, they kept the keel hidden under a shroud. The deciding race was beamed live from the us and it was on around 7.30 in the morning Sydney time. After the win they crossed live to I think a yacht club in Perth (Hawke was also from WA) to see a champagne soaked PM Bob Hawke sitting on a sofas surrounded by revellers , wearing a cheesy americas cup jacket who then uttered those now famous words. Even now after almost 40 years that footage is dug up and played occasionally. Can’t see Thatcher doing the same. Maybe Boris, I hear he likes his parties. As for any races after that.. wouldn’t know much except I think they now use those incredibly fast cats that do something like 50 knots or more. Oh, Alan Bond was later found guilty of some sort of fraud or similar of about $30million and sentenced to about 1 1/2 years jail in low security. Of course all the money was conveniently in his wife or childrens name so they got to keep it. What was that book you were flicking through in the video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s8mdHO2_Zo8.html
