With a waterline width of only 9.00m on a hull 9.125m long there is no doubt that this yacht is unusual, it looks more like a hull of a racing catamaran but with a deep slender fin and bulb keel. Modern infusion techniques have been used to produce an ultra lightweight yet strong hull and deck. Only two people can lift an entire hull and deck structure! Her high ballast ratio combined with a simple rig and sail plan, have combined to make an easy to handle boat with exceptional speed and explosive acceleration. The slim hull shape is a high prismatic design where the center of lateral resistance moves aft as the boat tilts. This keeps the rudder neutral as the boat tilts and minimizes drag. John Swarbrick hails from Western Australia and comes from a family that has been building boats, especially racing boats, for three generations. His builds include the famous Kookaburra series of 12-meter yachts and Tokyo, the Chris Dickson-driven Whitbread 60. His latest design is a far cry from the multi-million-dollar sleds for the America's Cup and Volvo Ocean Race, but only in price, not in concept or the fast-factor. Hull and deck: GRP Composite Infusion, HerexTM H80 foam core. Mast: Tapered carbon. Builder: ADMIRALTY YACHTS, Singapore The JS9000 was specifically designed as a fast, easy to sail and affordable racing boat. The goal was to race with two or three sailors who want easy handling and less physical effort. The boat also had to be reasonably priced and fast.....very fast. The JS9000 is very simple with minimal steering: - self-tacking / furling jib - asymmetric spinnaker from the bow - no bowsprit - lower deck lines with a single central control unit and a single winch - the only surface lines are spinnaker blades and a jib blade forward The movement of the JS9000 through the water is very easy, it points well, it runs deep and in a puff it just goes faster. Crew placement to windward/downwind makes little difference in performance. The JS9000 has many unique design features that result in a highly engineered sailboat with very specific goals. The JS9000 does not try to be all things to all people, but it is FAST and EASILY SAILABLE.
The boat is registered under number: AYJS-9041-3 and there are documents available: EC Declaration of Conformity - Import Custom documents - proof of VAT paid , etc
