Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 409 (2012) • Sailboat • 40 ft • 8 pers • Oban

During the development of the all new Sun Odyssey 409 the goal was clear; take every element that embodies the Sun Odyssey range and make it better. The result is a yacht that is undeniable a Jeanneau. The new Sun Odyssey 409 has already won the European Yacht of the Year. This nomination comes from the major European magazines from 11 different countries. The key innovations include the complete rethinking of the deck and sail plan to make this boat, not only fast, but incredibly easy to handle. A high-aspect rig and several choices of sail plan make this boat adaptable to every type of navigation from club racing to family cruising. Our version has electric bowthrusters, electric auxiliary winch (just press a button to hoist the main!) and a 106% genoa. The modern hull designed by Philippe Briand takes advantage of latest advances in hull design. The hard chine on the aft section of the hull increases stability and performance while creating extra volume in the aft cabins. Down below, the attention to detail can be felt throughout. A contemporary interior design has been realised using the finest materials available. In addition, more choices of high-end fabrics and different flooring make the space infinitely customisable to each owner’s tastes.
