Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 30i Dériveur

A Sun Odyssey 30i lifting-keel version, no longer built by Jeanneau, that can be beached on sand. Suits couples or small crews after easy coastal cruising.

This is a previous model. Jeanneau no longer builds the Sun Odyssey 30i Dériveur, so any you'll find now will have been sailed before.

Her party trick is simple. You can take her straight onto a sandy beach and let her sit there, which opens up shallow, clear-water spots a fixed-keel boat would have to anchor well off. Getting ashore becomes a short hop rather than a trip in the tender.

Under sail, Jeanneau designed her to perform like a bigger yacht. Down below there's more comfort than you'd normally expect on a boat of this size, which makes a difference when you're spending a few nights aboard.
