SLEAT ODYSSEY : Jeanneau SO 439 - 10 berth - 43'9"
For 2012 we are delighted to welcome a brand new four cabin, ten berth Jeanneau SO 439. The new Sun Odyssey 439 reflects the latest design trend for Jeanneau with dynamic lines, a hard chine on the hull, lots of hatches and windows along with bevelled edges on the deck, all from from the pen of Philippe Briand. The innovative deck plan makes sailing easy and the 439 will eat up the miles with ease and in a safe and enjoyable fashion
On deck the mainsail with Lazyjacks has single line reefing with sail controls lead back to Lewmar winches in the spacious cockpit. On the foredeck there is an electric windlass to power up or down the anchor and 60 metres of chain that Isle of Skye Yachts supply as standard. The extensive coachroof allows plenty of room for the dinghy to be stowed on deck, fully inflated. Back in the cockpit the walk through transom allows for easy boarding and disembarking and al fresco dining is a delight at the generously proportioned cockpit table. The sail wardrobe consists of mainsail, roller furling genoa, and easy to use (but we hope you won’t have to) storm jib.
The navigation equipment is as you would expect for a boat of that size and quality with wind and log and fully integrated autohelm to carry you along if the crew ever tire of steering the boat. Down below in the navigation area there is; the chart plotter, Navtex and a VHF/DSC radio as well as all the charts and CCC pilot books and lots of other useful reading material about sailing in the area. Should the wind fail the powerful Yanmar 54HP engine will provide an alternative means of power and will also provide warm water for a relaxing shower.
The accommodation is very comfortable and is based in four cabins plus the saloon. For your comfort, there is warm air heating in all the cabins. In the forward section of the boat there is a double cabin and a two berth bunk cabin to starboard which both have access to the forward heads and shower compartment. In the spacious saloon there is double berth conversion or a two single option. Two generous double aft cabins complete the sleeping accommodation with another large heads/shower compartment at the foot of the companionway. On the other side of the boat is the galley area with cooker, fridge and galley equipment for a full complement of ten people on board. A radio/CD player with USB/CD/MP3 Aux Input is available for entertainment.
We are delighted with the new Sleat Odyssey and are confident that her good looks, impressive sailing performance and delightfully comfortable accommodation will appeal to all.
