The J-160 is a remarkable cruising yacht with superior construction and performance characteristics. The hull and deck are built strong and light using TPI's advanced resin-infusion SCRIMP molding technology. A low center of gravity affords less healing, which is further enhanced by the optional (8.8’) keel. The triple spreader rig configuration provides excellent sailing performance when cruising with main and roller furling jib, even in light air. The design offers easy handling, usually associated with a much smaller yacht. There have been many well-documented circumnavigations credited to J-160.
Harmony (hull #35) was the last boat built in the series, and she was built to an even higher specification. After a decade of sailing their first J/160, the original owners put together a wish list that included numerous upgrades/improvements and asked Tillotson Pearson to build them their dream boat, which ultimately became the best J-160 ever built. She has benefited from always being stored in a heated shed in the offseason and has always been maintained to a high standard.
While based in Maine, the second owners have enjoyed 7 years of coastal cruising. The husband-and-wife team (now in their late 60s) have thoroughly enjoyed their time aboard but now offer their boat for sale.
«When things weren't working out with my previous Yacht Broker, a friend of mine suggested that I contact Yacht Access to sell my Sea Ray. I contacted Dan Paolillo at Yacht Access and there was absolutely no pressure. After our initial conversation Dan followed up with a list of comparable vessels recently sold and a list of similar vessels currently available with asking prices. After looking over the information we decided on an asking price and within 90 days Dan had my yacht under contract. Two weeks later it was sold. Since then we've kept in close touch and will hopefully be closing on my next vessel soon. After no success selling my 48' Sea Ray Sedan Bridge with my previous broker, calling Yacht Access was the best decision I ever made. I would encourage anyone looking to buy or sell to contact these professionals.»
