(Portofino, Italy)- The new owner of the J/122 SKY HUNTER in Portofino, Italy- Alessandro Bianchi- passed along his enthusiastic comments about sailing his J/122 with family in the Mediterranean.“I just wanted to praise my cruising version of the J/122- we love her when using her cruising mode. I am quite impressed with its speed! In an event last weekend in Genoa called Millevele, we came in 2nd in class and 7th overall (out of 170 participants)!
That is not bad for our first event with a crew of old friends that had never hopped on the boat before! The event was meant to be fun and the regatta included both high-tech grand prix machines plus older, chunky cruising sailboats- - it was a rather relaxed approach for a regatta that everyone loved! Nevertheless, having just bought our 8-year-old J/122 SKY HUNTER, it stood out in the fleet in many sailors’ opinion for its looks and speed! Bravo! Thanks so much for a wonderful boat! My family and friends and their children love it, too!” Kind regards from Italy, Alessandro
