JONGERT
LA JOIE DE MER: TURN-KEY, UNDER $2M, AND UNMATCHED
Seize a rare opportunity—LA JOIE DE MER, a pedigreed Jongert designed by Tony Castro, is on the market for just $1,995,000. This is not a project, not a compromise, but a fully equipped, turn-key sailing yacht priced for immediate sale by a multi-boat owner. In a market where this price typically buys a yacht from the 1980s or 1990s, LA JOIE DE MER stands apart with her condition, capabilities, and upgrades.
Built in 2005 and extensively optimized—including a fully upgraded keel in 2011—she delivers spirited performance, whether you’re racing or cruising. Her recent five-year rig survey, completed in late 2023, means she’s ready to sail now—no delays, no surprises.
Her serious sailing package features a carbon Hall Spars mast, Park Avenue boom, North 3DI sails, Harken winches, rod rigging, and a captive main winch. Recent upgrades include a night generator, new batteries, stern thruster, mainsail, and updated galley equipment. The submarine anchor and aft garage keep decks open and clutter-free.
On deck, the enclosed saloon offers settees, twin tables, a nav station, and a bar—equally comfortable at anchor or underway. The lower saloon, with its expansive skylight, creates a bright, flexible space for lounging or dining.
Accommodations are generous: a full-beam aft master with queen, a VIP with double and Pullman, and a twin guest cabin, all with ensuites. Forward, you’ll find a spacious galley, crew mess, and two ensuite crew cabins. The honey teak interior is timeless and inviting.
Freshly painted in 2022 and maintained to the highest standard, LA JOIE DE MER is a standout in her class. For under $2 million, there is simply nothing else like her on the market. This is your chance to own a top-tier sailing yacht without compromise.
