95’2” (29m) Jongert LA JOIE DE MER Turn-Key and Under $2M

Northrop & Johnson announces a $335,000 price reduction for the 95’2” (29m) Jongert sailing yacht LA JOIE DE MER. Now aggressively listed at $1,995,000 with Yacht Broker Ann Avery, this 2005 build from Jongert and Tony Castro now sits in a price range typically reserved for yachts built in the 1980s and 1990s, yet she’s in a completely different league of condition and capability. She is one of the most competitively priced high-quality sailing yachts on the market today.

LA JOIE DE MER, or “Joy of the Sea,” is a pedigreed, performance-driven yacht with serious upgrades where it counts. Her keel was fully optimized by 2011, delivering lively light-air performance ideal for Corinthian racing or fast cruising. Her recent five-year rig survey, completed in late 2023, confirms she’s ready to sail now, with no guesswork or delays.

Her carbon Hall Spars mast, Park Avenue boom, and North 3DI sails form a serious sail plan, backed by Harken winches, rod rigging, and a captive main winch. Thoughtful updates include a new night generator, batteries, stern thruster, mainsail, and upgraded galley equipment. The submarine anchor and aft garage keep decks wide open and clean.

Her enclosed deck saloon, equipped with settees, twin tables, nav station, and bar., makes her as comfortable at anchor as she is under sail. Below, the lower saloon is bathed in natural light from an expansive skylight and features flexible lounge and dining zones.

Accommodations include a full-beam aft master with queen, a VIP with double and Pullman, and a twin guest cabin—all with ensuites. Forward are a spacious galley, crew mess, and two ensuite crew cabins. The honey teak interior adds warmth without ever feeling dated.

Freshly painted in 2022 and maintained to a high standard, LA JOIE DE MER is not a project boat, not a compromise, and certainly not priced as one. At under $2 million, there’s simply nothing else like her on the market. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a serious, turn-key sailing yacht at an unmatched price.
