About
This exquisite J Craft Torpedo R, built in 2011, perfectly balances vintage style with high-end power. Handcrafted on Sweden’s Gotland island, she features a vacuum-infused GRP hull adorned with book-matched, responsibly sourced West African mahogany and twenty coats of varnish, each hull requires over 8,000 man-hours.
Beneath her timeless mahogany veneer lies cutting-edge Volvo Penta IPS pod propulsion with joystick control IPS 600, delivering effortless docking and exhilarating cruising up to 42 knots, yet with 20% more speed and 30% better fuel efficiency than traditional drives.
The hull’s superior stability—proven across the Baltic, North Sea, and Mediterranean—sparkles in both coastal comfort and open-sea confidence .
Accommodations include seating for over 8 person on deck, a wet-head, a forward cabin sleeping four, plus a kitchenette with fridge, sink, and induction hob.
