On the latest episode of "Conversations with Classic Boats," Bob and Rod Johnstone talk about their designs and the business philosophy that has produced over 15,000 J Boats up to the most recent J/121, their 48th design. www.conversationswithclassicboats.com/
Rod, who designed the J/24 prototype, Ragtime, and built it in his Stonington garage, has always seen jBoats as a family affair. “It was always about all of our family right from the beginning.”, said Rod right at the beginning of this Conversation.
Brother Bob Johnstone who goes through what he calls the “ 12 Points” of JBoats has the inside story on the business philosophy that propelled their success.
Conversations with Classic Boats can be found on Apple Podcasts, Google Play and on the website. Host/creator is Tom Darling
