“She is a conduit for your fulfillments, whatever your fulfillments may be in life”

The J Craft Torpedo is a boat like no other. Actually the word boat doesn’t make her name justice, instead the Torpedo is rather to be considered as a small superyacht as she is built to that standard. The Torpedo is built on the founding principles of passion and grace, marrying beautiful materials, exquisitely engineered details, distinctive vintage design and discreet state-of-the-art technology. She is a chic and capable, entirely hand-built boat by the small quality driven team who never settle for anything less than perfection.

The Torpedo is an exquisite combination of craftsmanship, power and performance. Unrivaled in her timeless styling with a commanding presence, under the waterline each J Craft is anything but traditional. The Torpedo’s hull enables excellent stability and performance in any sea state as well as an impressive 240 nm range. Her skipper can gracefully navigate coastal Mediterranean waters, easily cruising from breakfast in Monaco to lunch in Porto Cervo. True to her Viking heritage, the Torpedo has made some remarkable trips, be that in the South China Sea, crossing from Hong Kong to Hainan and back, or the Med, frequently crossing from Monaco to Corsica, Sardinia or Ibiza and back, or in the Baltic Sea where J Crafts regularly travel from their home base in Gotland to Stockholm and back. The Torpedo, powered by the IPS, yields virtually no vibration, noise or smell and joystick control allows for confident and effortless maneuvering in port.The Torpedo can be fitted with the IPS 500, 600R, or the new 650RS systems. The IPS-drives quickly propel her up to 47 knots, allowing for pirouettes and daring high-speed turns. Not only does this system guarantee expert maneuverability, it allows for a 20% higher top speed and 30% less consumption and emissions than a traditional propulsion system. The fixtures and fittings of the J Craft Torpedo are second to none. The Torpedo comes with a hand carved, wooden “Nardi'' steering wheel, the same as that used in the 1960s’ Ferrari 250GTO. Interior and exterior spaces are beautifully appointed with cloth by Loro Piana, treated with their Rain System to repel stains, with finishes such as diamond-stitched upholstery available.

J Craft works with each owner to individually tailor areas of the Torpedo for specific tastes and desires which leads to the fact that ordering one is more akin to commissioning a piece of art than a boat and the J Craft design team will be happy to guide you on this journey. The Torpedo starts at around €1,2 M and since J Craft’s work is a bespoke superyacht, a new customer can also choose from a myriad of optional extras, therefore they are invited to go that extra mile in order to create something truly unique to them. This emotion is tangible; it can be seen in the faces of those that experience it. It can be heard in the enthusiasm of those that own it. It is demonstrated in the actions of those that design and build it. Since every boat is born out of the passions of a small, dedicated group of people who have nursed each boat from its conception to its glorious present, every J Craft Torpedo carries a soul. A new owner therefore becomes a part of the J Craft family as well as the fantastic story of the company.

The quote from J Craft’s owner Radenko Milakovic in the beginning of this article really sums up what the essence of the J Craft Torpedo is all about. No matter if you want freedom, peace of mind, adrenalin or performance; she will allow it in her capacity of being the conductor for your desires.
