This 2011 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 44i is a 45-foot fiberglass cruising sloop designed by Philippe Briand. The hull combines responsive performance with exceptional livability, engineered to deliver seakeeping and speed for passage-making while providing the volume and comfort expected of a family cruiser. The "i" designation indicates injection-moulded deck construction, which ensures precise fit-and-finish and an efficient strength-to-weight ratio.
On deck, the 44i is organized for straightforward, short-handed sailing. A fractional sloop rig and efficient keel profile deliver predictable helm balance and good upwind ability. Twin-wheel helms and a roomy cockpit provide clear sightlines and safe crew movement. Sail handling typically includes a roller-furling headsail and options for reefing or furling mainsail systems, making sail changes efficient even with a small crew. The boat is powered by a single 54 hp Yammer diesel engine.
Below decks, the interior layout is exceptionally adaptable. The standard arrangement offers four cabins convertible to three, each served by en-suite heads—a configuration well-suited to family cruising or extended guest accommodations. The saloon is bright and airy with generous headroom and smart ergonomics. The galley and navigation station are positioned for practical access and offshore convenience, with abundant storage and refrigeration capacity for extended cruising.
The boat has been actively used and regularly maintained, with systems configured for reliability and ease of upkeep. It accepts a range of auxiliary electronics packages to match intended use, from coastal cruising to longer passages.
