J class is the shape a child would draw a yacht, but refined to such a degree it brings tears to a grown mans eyes with its breath taking beauty.

@@petar1008 it doesn't suck. Day 4 of the prada cup was the most exciting sailing race ive ever watched. The J class has its place in racing as so do the AC75s, I think there both here to stay.

I’ve seen bigger, I’ve seen faster, I’ve seen far more high tech. But nothing, NOTHING compares to the elegant grandeur of the J’s.

Foils make speed but elegant monohulls will forever hold my heart.

Love is contemplation, and sailing is contemplating the sea and the wind.

Good Lord :) Definitely one of the most Beautiful things of all the things there are on this planet.

Nothing makes my heart pound like the J class.

I watch the majesty of these beautiful yachts racing and I am in awe. This is what the America's Cup should be about. Not those hydro-foiling monstrosities that prioritise speed over human involvement and experience.

I have never been into boats or sailing but as a person that has no idea about any of this I can absolutely appreciate the sheer elegance of these boats. They look amazing!!

Танец, парусов и яхт❤

With the direction taken by America's Cup the last 10 years, this is what to watch to see some proper top notch sailing

Lets bring them back, this is real America's Cup racing.

@@clintonbirch9405 In 1988 Australia held the cup When Dennis Connor won it back . Australia being the cup holder set the class of boat to be used. I have all four races on old VCR tape and stayed up all night watching Conner beat New Zealand 4-1 and then win the cup 4-0. Still have the tapes and player bring back some great racing and wonderful memories.

Whales with sails. Absolutely magnificent. May not be as fast as the smaller skiff designs that plane, but there is a grace about the J class which surpasses all else.

Amazing images! J Class... what huge, breathtakingly beautiful sailing vessels! (The music, on the other hand, quickly turns into Hans Zimmer-like ghastly monotony, with the poor string section grinding away like robots)

And to think the 1930 woodies are still up there competing with the newer, metal J's. A testament to one of the finest designs ever.

So elegant. And the teamwork among such large crews is as impressive. Bring back the J’s…

Racing eights is probably the closest I will every come to this magnificence… 😮‍💨 Close but no cigar

I'd never heard of "J class" before. Beautiful yachts.

The best of the best

Days of elegance, style and beauty. Along with an obscene amount of money. I'll stick with my canoe 🤣.

Stunning yachts, great idea for a video. Being picky I would have liked some of the scenes to last longer. Didn't really have time to focus on anything.

J/K3 Alumni here.... Best part of my life. Cheers to all who remember J-Class on Tour 1990. The only 2 left. JK3 and JK4. "Imitation is the highest form of flattery".

Wonderful film, wonderful yatchs. Thanks a lot.

As much as I find the tech and short racing of the America's Cup fascinating, this is what SAILING looks like! 80 footers half length apart getting after it! No crash helmets, few cameras onboard, your EYES tell you what the boat, your direct opponent, the rest of the fleet and the WEATHER is doing! Figuring a J boat is, what, 15 million dollars that is a lot of dollars sailing together!
