2020 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349

2020 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349

Looking for a yacht that genuinely does everything well? This late-model Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349 delivers the rare combination of spirited sailing performance, effortless handling and genuine cruising comfort. Capable of embarrassing many dedicated cruiser-racers on the racecourse, yet equally at home as a relaxed family cruiser or weekender, this is one of the most versatile yachts in its class.

Presented in exceptional condition throughout, this beautifully specified example features the highly desirable two-cabin owner’s layout, the later and larger owner’s cabin design, and the contemporary light grey cedar interior finish, creating a bright, modern and inviting living space below.

With premium sails, extensive electronics and a full canvas package, this yacht represents outstanding value and would strongly appeal to buyers considering a new yacht, at around half the replacement cost.

Proven Performance with Shoal Draft Practicality

One of the standout features of this particular yacht is the shoal draft winged keel. Unlike many shallow-draft compromises, this design has proven to retain the impressive pointing ability and sailing performance of the standard keel configuration.

This yacht has demonstrated exactly that by winning its division in a club short offshore racing series, confirming the remarkable all-round capability of the Sun Odyssey 349 platform.

Australia’s Best-Selling Modern Cruiser

There are very good reasons why the Sun Odyssey 349 has become the best-selling production cruising yacht in Australia since the 1980s.

The design delivers:

• Excellent stability and balance
• Easy, rewarding sailing characteristics
• A comfortable and practical cockpit
• An interior that feels significantly larger than expected for a 34-footer

Whether sailing short-handed, racing around the cans or enjoying weekends away, the 349 continues to impress owners with its versatility.

Bright, Functional Interior

The owner’s layout is both practical and comfortable.

To starboard is the L-shaped galley, while the saloon features:

• Centreline saloon table
• Comfortable bench seating
• Aft-facing navigation station to port

The aft owner’s cabin to starboard features a proper full-sized double berth and benefits from the later larger-cabin configuration.

Opposite, aft to port, is the head compartment, complete with:

• Dedicated separate shower stall
• Access to a large storage locker, also accessible from the cockpit

Forward is a comfortable and traditional V-berth guest cabin.

Cockpit Designed for Sailing and Relaxing

The cockpit is spacious, secure and ideal for both cruising and social sailing.

Features include:

• Fold-down swim platform
• Hot and cold transom shower
• Centreline drop-leaf cockpit table
• Additional coachroof winches and clutches for enhanced sail handling

The full canvas package further enhances comfort and usability in all weather conditions.

Excellent Electronics Package

The yacht is comprehensively equipped with Raymarine electronics, including:

• Axiom 7-inch MFD/plotter at the port helm
• Multi display and autopilot with gyro at the starboard helm
• AIS700 transceiver
• Ray53 VHF radio below decks

This setup provides excellent functionality for both cruising and racing.
