J-Class boats are the biggest and most prestigious racers in the world. In all ten J-class yachts were designed, all of them with the aim of winning the America's Cup in 1930, 1934, and 1937. Six were launched in America, four in England. All those built in the US have today disappeared. The English yachts, however, are still in existence.
