PRICE REDUCED - £160,000 PROVEN BLUE WATER YACHT – READY FOR ANOTHER ADVENTURE
2011 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45 DS | UK VAT Paid | Never Chartered | Exceptionally Well-Specified
This 2011 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45 Deck Saloon (DS) is an excellent example of a very capable offshore cruiser with proven Blue Water sailing provenance having crossed the Atlantic. Built for comfort, performance and safety, she boasts a high specification and a wealth of upgrades by her experienced current owner – all designed to make extended ocean passages as enjoyable as they are reliable.
With three generous cabins and additional saloon berths, she accommodates up to six guests in comfort in the cabins - plus perhaps two on the settee in the saloon. Below deck, the warm traditional teak joinery is beautifully offset by cream leather upholstery, creating a stylish and inviting interior.
Designed to be easily sailed when short-handed, she features an in-mast furling mainsail, furling genoa, and electric winches – making sail handling safe and simple. Her thoughtfully laid-out deck and cockpit with twin wheels means she’s equally well-suited to family cruising or long-distance passages (where the feathering prop comes into its own).
In preparation for the 2022 Atlantic Rally for Cruisers (ARC), the current owner commissioned a comprehensive suite of upgrades ensuring this yacht is fully equipped and genuinely turn-key.
Notable Features and Recent Upgrades Include:
* Standing and running rigging replaced – 2022
* Hydrovane windvane steering system with a spare rudder – ideal for ocean passages
* New sails (Main & Genoa) – 2022
* Tender (2022) and Electric outboard (2024)
* Diesel generator, with Bow thruster and Air Conditioning for comfort and ease of use
* Efoy 150 fuel cell, new service batteries (2023) and a 6 kw generator for energy independence
* 3kW Inverter – suitable for running domestic appliances
* Water maker – for long-range autonomy
* Full Raymarine navigation suite (Radar, AIS, Autopilot, and more)
Lovingly maintained, extensively upgraded, and proven offshore, this Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45 DS is a serious yacht for a serious sailor – yet easily handled by a cruising couple or an adventurous family.
