Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 37.2

A Jeanneau cruiser from a previous range, now found secondhand, with a balanced hull, a practical cockpit and a bright saloon for eight.

Jeanneau no longer builds the Sun Odyssey 37.2, but she's a good one to look for secondhand. Her hull is well balanced, and she handles nicely whatever the point of sail.

Up to 7 lights keep the saloon bright and airy. Eight can sit round the table, and it turns into a double berth in seconds. The galley is large and very well equipped.

On deck, the helm seat swings aside to give direct access to the swim platform. You get a cockpit table and an icebox on the centreline, the large wheel makes manoeuvring simple and precise, and the double split backstay leaves the way into the cockpit open.

She's 11.4 m overall with an 11.2 m hull and 1.87 m draught, carries 140 l of fuel and 360 l of fresh water, and is rated for 6 people.
