Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32

Brief details

 

Builder

Chantiers Jeanneau, Les Herbiers, France

The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32 is a modern family cruiser with excellent accommodation including a very good galley and aft cabin, and up to 6' 3" headroom in the saloon. Although tiller steering was said to be standard, most boats appear to have been fitted with the optional wheel steering.

Sun Odyssey 32

The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32 was built from 2002 to 2005, with minor modifications year to year. It replaced the Sun Odyssey 32.2, and was in turn updated to become the Sun Odyssey 32i from around 2006.

Designed by Phillipe Briand and the Jeanneau in-house design team, she has her maximum beam carried well aft, giving a very good aft cabin. The same hull was used (with a deeper keel and bigger rig) for the Sun Fast 32 cruiser-racer. A special version was also built for the Sunsail charter company. Engines were usually 18 hp Yanmars, though other engines including Nanni were fitted to a few boats.

 

Two keel options were offered, a bulbed fin keel with a single spade rudder, or a very shallow winged keel with centreboard and twin rudders, this last variant being inevitably more expensive.
