About the Sailboat Jada

The sailing vessel Jada is designed for blue water ocean racing. She was built over seventy years ago as a solid and fast passage making vessel and even today with the advent modern fiberglass sailing vessels, Jada is still considered a fast boat.

Her full keel and yawl rigged sails make her a very stable and safe vessel, even for crossing oceans on extended voyages.

Today it would cost nearly $2,000,000.00 to design and construct Jada to her original specifications.

Below deck Jada’s interior was created by master craftsmen using the finest teak wood available providing a warm glow to all passengers aboard. Her cabin sole (floor) is also teak with gorgeous holly inlays capturing the quality of a bygone era.

Rare at the time of her construction is Jada’s hard-dodger cockpit cabin, which keeps her passengers warm and cozy when conditions are less than ideal.
