87ft JFA 2027

ABOUT THE SHIPYARD

Founded in 1993 by Frédéric Jaouen and Frédéric Breuilly, JFA Yachts began its journey with Kermor, a 75-foot light-displacement sailboat. With a background in aluminum sailboat construction from Chantier Leguen Hemidy, the founders set their sights on building exceptional large sailing yachts.

Expanding into Motor Yachts

In 2001, JFA entered the motor yacht market with Axantha, a 122-foot explorer yacht. By the end of 2003, JFA was selected to build Bystander, a 42-meter classic-style yacht. This project elevated JFA’s technical capabilities, particularly in constructing yachts exceeding 500 GT while meeting Lloyd’s and MCA regulations. JFA’s commitment to excellence was recognized in 2006 when Bystander won Best Motor Yacht of the Year (32-43m) at the International Superyacht Society Awards.

In 2012, JFA delivered Mousetrap, a 33m carbon-fiber sailing catamaran, the largest of its kind at the time. This marked the beginning of the Long Island Catamarans brand. The first, WindQuest (85’), launched in 2014, followed by NDS Evolution in 2018, a yacht that has since ventured as far as Antarctica.

Commitment to Excellence

JFA Yachts has upheld a commitment to quality, versatility, and innovation. Every yacht built at its Concarneau shipyard reflects a passion for craftsmanship and customisation.

Location

Concarneau, located on the southern coast of Brittany, has a deep-rooted maritime heritage that dates back centuries. Originally a fortified fishing port, the city’s strong shipbuilding tradition evolved, and today, Concarneau remains a center of maritime excellence, housing modern shipyards like JFA Yachts.
