Manufacture's Description

Sailing discovers a new dimension, Jeanneau introduces a revolutionary new concept in deck salon sailboats: wide cockpit, “deck salon” roof, panoramic windows with numerous opening ports for ventilation, solid teak interior, high standing interior headroom throughout, modular cabin layouts… The SUN ODYSSEY 43DS offers exceptional comfort for worry-free ocean voyages.

For exceptional sailing performance, the SUN ODYSSEY 43 DS is practical and explicitly designed for offshore sailing. With high-quality hardware throughout (including centralized genoa winches), top-of-the-line furling mainsail and genoa gear, and numerous other thoughtful details, life at sea will never be the same again. Likewise for the level of safety on board, with wide deck passageways, and stainless steel bow and stern pulpits.

In the large teak-battened cockpit, the helm station is protected from the elements, and is designed to harbor all of the necessary electronic navigation equipment. In the deck salon layout, there is also an exclusive helm seat, a cockpit table with built-in icebox, and large storage lockers for accessories and gear. Large, comfortable, practical, the cockpit is designed for easy maneuvering. Astern, it’s easy to go for a swim thanks to the big folding swim ladder and freshwater shower.

Forward, a built-in sun deck is included for your relaxation and comfort.

The comfort and volume of the interior are strong points as well in the SUN ODYSSEY 43 DS. In the vast salon, there is a panoramic view of the outside, and each area is built for relaxing and practical living. From the varnished teak companionway to the cabins as well as the below deck passageway and the washrooms, there’s space and access throughout both floor levels, with 1,95 / 6’ 4” headroom. The exceptional comfort of the owner’s cabin is guaranteed with an island berth in the 2 cabin version sets a new standard, along with the patented modular interior adaptable to your style of sailing. Whatever your choice, with natural ventilation, varnished teak interior, stainless steel, glass, elegant upholstery, and quality gear, the SUN ODYSSEY 43 DS is an exceptional sailboat.
