Your premier J/Boats dealer in the Southwest

J/Boats Southwest

Our mission at J/Boats Southwest is to find the perfect boat for you to accomplish your sailing dreams. There is no other sport that generates the passion sailors have for being out on the water with friends and family, enjoying the magic of the wind, that being on a wind-powered boat provides. We believe sailing brings the thrill of an adrenaline rush, healthy competition, moments of relaxation, and a connection with nature. Young, or young-at-heart, we want to help you reach your goals and deepen your yearning to be on the water.

Fulfilling those sailing dreams starts with finding a sailboat that fits you – whether you aspire to sail close to home, cruise to distant shores, or take up the challenge of competitive sailing. Performance differences between sailboats are greater than differences between golf clubs, tennis rackets, skis or cars. A well-designed sailboat, like a good sports car, is an extension of its owner. It could take years of sailing other boats to learn the difference that good design and quality make to one’s sailing enjoyment. Or, you can save time and take advantage of what we’ve designed into every “J.”

Mike Mullenberg

Since 1975, as owner of a small Midwest sailboat shop, Mike's passion for the sailboat business has never ceased.  His industry experience spans generations of sailboat and windsurfing manufacturers from the 80's and 90's including Catalina, Hunter, Beneteau, S2 Yachts, Tartan, O'day, Sail MFG, Precision, Spindrift, Compac, Hobie Cat, Holder, Pt. Jude, Boston Whaler/Supercat, AMF Alcort,  AMF Trac catamarans, NACRA, Laser, Johnson Scows, Melges Scows, Banshee, Byte, Windsurfer, Mistral, F2, Fanatic. In the early years, Mike did it all.  

Hands on experience included sales, rigging, installing electronics, FG and rigging repairs, bottom painting, trailer maintenance and deliveries. Fast forward 20 years, Mike moved to Anacortes in 2011 to accept a yacht brokerage position with the Jeanneau dealer and boatyard.  Following 6 years of developing a strong customer following, Mike’s entrepreneurial spirit led him to launch Pacific Cruising Yachts in 2017.   

With the extensive hands-on experience from owning and operating his own boatyard in the 90's, Mike believed his company could offer a higher level of product specialty knowledge to sailing customers.  To expand on this business model, Pacific Cruising Yachts now hires only Broker Specialists to join the company.  The company believes a broker who focuses on a single category of boat style, rather than a do-it-all generalist broker, will provide a better solution for their boat seller and buyer clients.  The company roster includes Broker Specialists for sailboats, multihulls, and trawlers with a soon to be added saltwater fishing specialist.  Our commitment to customers provides educated and experienced broker specialists who know their product niche well.

Our reputation is anchored by honest, transparent, and consultative approach to buying or selling boats. The foundation of our success is based on hard work, integrity, and focus on win-win transactions. 

We provide state-of-the-art online digital, social media, and inbound marketing strategies to attract the best listings and buyers for our clients. 

Our services include pre-sale surveys, boat value market analysis, pre-sale detailing and repairs, advertising and marketing, financing, boat insurance, outfitting and refit services, boat handling and sailing instruction, Title & Closing services, and friendship. Our goal is setting a new standard for yacht buying and selling and creating customers for life.

# Important Regatta Information
This year J/Fest Southwest is using Yacht Scoring to manage registration, online purchases, crew waivers and scoring. A few things you need to know. You will establish an email address (username) and password and all your data will be kept in the Yacht Scoring database so you only need to enter once for all future regattas in their system. The layout is quite different and there are many fields, but not too many more than before. The skipper is responsible for entering boat info, handicap rating, crew names, and emails. It is a little more work the first time you register, but it will pay off at the event as your registration will be complete and provide you with more time to socialize!

# Boat Storage
