GRACE
ON
WATER
THE J CRAF T P HILOSOP HY
The essence of boating is the pursuit of passion. As with all matters of the heart, this extraordinary
pursuit is uniquely individual and forms the very core of the J Craft philosophy. Blending cutting
edge performance with classic lines, the new J Craft Torpedo redefines the notion of grace on water.

You grip the solid hand-carved wood of the steering wheel and power up the twin Volvo Penta
engines, setting the stage for a boating experience unlike any other. The rowdy conversation of
your guests quiets as the J Craft Torpedo smoothly accelerates, replaced by gleaming smiles as you
leave the mooring behind. Well underway, the stunning shape of the Torpedo’s hull cuts the chop
effortlessly, negotiating a tight arc as you push across the bay. The Torpedo responds nimbly in
each maneuver, while maintaining a true sense of speed. The sun deepens and spills into the sea as
the gentle breeze frames another unforgettable evening.

IT’S ALL
IN
THE
DETAILS
THE J CRAFT F OCUS
The Swedish boat building tradition is one of hand shaped hulls, rock solid construction and meticulous
craftsmanship. The J Craft Torpedo takes this practice to its extreme in every detail. The eco-friendly
mahogany deck is lacquered 18 times for the perfect combination of gloss and strength. Every detail
is meticulously hand finished, from the stitching on the upholstery to the finish of the bow chocks.
No two Torpedos are the same, yet every Torpedo is a true J Craft.

SPECIFICATIONS
HOW GOOD
IS GREAT?
THE J CRAF T TORP ED O
While the J Craft Torpedo is greater than the sum of its parts, each individual component it built to
be the very best. The hand-carved steering wheel is supplied by Nardi, legendary purveyors of the
steering wheels for classic Ferraris including the 250 GTO. The Volvo Penta IPS drivetrain produces
arresting performance at speed and unparalleled maneuverability in the harbour. Each bespoke
J Craft creation is a reflection of this unique partnership between parts and the whole, resulting in
the most exceptional motor cruisers in the world.
