2012 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 379

The 2012 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 379 is a 37-foot cruising sailboat built on a fiberglass hull. With a beam of 12.3 feet, the boat balances performance and comfort through efficient design and stable handling characteristics. Power comes from a 29 hp Yanmar diesel engine with saildrive and a folding three-blade propeller that enhances windward performance while maintaining good maneuverability under power.

The two-cabin layout provides comfortable cruising accommodation for a couple or small crew, with a single head and bright, functional interior spaces. The galley is well equipped, and practical storage supports extended cruising. A Webasto heater, hot water system, and entertainment options including hi-fi and television add to onboard comfort. The teak-finished cockpit opens to a swim platform and external living areas suited to anchorage.

The sailing rig is arranged for straightforward handling, with controls led back to the cockpit and modern aids including lazy-bag and lazy-jack systems. A full anchoring setup includes windlass and primary ground tackle. The running rigging and standing rigging, including shrouds replaced in 2023, support reliable performance. Navigation electronics comprise VHF with AIS transceiver, autopilot, GPS chartplotter with cockpit mounting, depth sounder, speed-log, wind instrument, and repeaters throughout.

The boat's energy systems were upgraded in 2023 with renewed battery banks, solar panels providing 170 watts, charger, shore power connection, and load distribution. These additions enhance self-sufficiency during extended time away from shore infrastructure.
