Immaculate condition / Superbly Maintained / Very Low hours / Tasmania, Australia
The Sun Odyssey 39DS is renowned for its bright, spacious interior, luxurious styling, impressive build quality and sailing performance. This highly sought-after design is the ultimate comfortable cruiser for anything from local to bluewater passages. This vessel has benefitted from having just two fastidious owners from new and is in immaculate condition inside and out. With a fully documented service history, a host of recent upgrades and presenting in exceptional condition, this lovely yacht speaks for itself and is ready to be enjoyed.
Inside the Jeanneau quality finish is immediately evident and the level of presentation is simply superb. This is the sought-after two-cabin layout, perfect for a cruising couple or family. The huge aft cabin features a full-size king bed with excellent headroom, making it easier to use than a standard aft berth on similar yachts of her size. This cabin also features ample storage space, perfect for extended cruising. The second cabin is forward with a large double berth. The generous saloon benefits from excellent headroom owing to the Deck Saloon design, with the lovely teardrop windows providing fantastic light and visibility. The L-shaped galley is to starboard and features a large fridge freezer, 2-burner stove combination oven, double sink and quality Corian benchtops. To port is a spacious bathroom with a full-size shower area, stylish vanity and toilet complete with a holding tank. This model features a 'Garage' as we call it - a truly vast storage room accessed via a handy door on the aft side wall in the bathroom.
The spacious cockpit is brilliantly designed for both sailing and relaxing. The twin wheels and raised deck give the helmsman a great view of the surroundings, with the primary winches leading back to the helm making her particularly well suited to short-handed sailing. The bow thruster, port-side electric winch, furling mainsail and furling headsail make her exceptionally easy to handle and manoeuvre.
Powered by a very well-maintained and reliable Yanmar 40HP diesel with only 560 hours on the clock, she easily cruises at around 7 knots and provides comfortable and dependable performance under power when required. Combined with her excellent sailing characteristics, generous tankage and practical cruising layout, she is equally suited to exploring the Tasmanian coastline or undertaking longer passages.
This Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 39DS is an exceptional example of this popular Deck Saloon cruising yacht, offering excellent accommodation, sailing performance and liveaboard comfort. She has been lightly used and meticulously maintained, with significant recent upgrades including new sails, batteries, navigation equipment and running rigging.
She has also been carefully kept in a protected, padded marina berth from new, further reflecting the exceptional level of care and attention she has received throughout her ownership. This is a genuine, albeit very reluctant, reason for sale and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 39DS in Tasmania, ready to enjoy.
