JPK1180 – Sunrise III

**Designed and Maintained to Win! **

Launched in 2018 as hull number two of the legendary JPK 1180 series, Sunrise is a yacht that needs no introduction. Having dominated the world’s most prestigious offshore and inshore events, she represents the pinnacle of Jacques Valer’s research into hull design. Whether you are looking for an elite charter platform or a turn-key, race-winning program to own, Sunrise is ready to take on new challenges.

The JPK 1180 was designed to meet a dual offshore/inshore crewed program—a task that is often a contradiction in terms. Traditionally, the qualities required for these two disciplines are vastly different. By mastering this balance, the JPK 1180 has become a true showpiece of naval architecture.

**Why Sunrise? **
1. A Proven Pedigree of Success The JPK yard is synonymous with IRC dominance. The JPK 1180 represents the pinnacle of Jacques Valer’s design evolution. Sunrise has lived up to this heritage, securing class and overall wins in almost every blue-water classic, including:

• Overall Winner: 49th Rolex Fastnet Race (2021)
• 1st in Class: Rolex Middle Sea Race, RORC Caribbean 600, and the Sydney to Hobart.

2. Elite Specification & Maintenance This is not a standard cruiser-racer; Sunrise is specified to the highest standard. Every piece of deck hardware, the extensive sail wardrobe, and the B&G H5000 electronics package have been meticulously maintained and upgraded to ensure she remains at the front of the pack. She is "dialled in" and ready to podium.

3. The IRC "Sweet Spot" With an IRC rating of 1.098, the JPK 1180 sits in a highly competitive bracket. She possesses the hull speed to stay ahead of the fleet "traffic" while maintaining a rating that allows her to consistently outperform larger yachts on corrected time.

Verdict - Sunrise is an exciting, high-performance option for any enthusiastic team that refuses to settle for just "participating." Whether you are eyeing the RORC season or a bucket-list offshore classic, this JPK 1180 provides the platform, the speed, and the reputation to put you at the front of the fleet. **Secure your place on the starting line or inquire about ownership.
