2015 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509

This 2015 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509 is a solidly built 53-foot cruising sailboat with generous interior volumes and a well-designed layout. The fiberglass hull carries a 75 hp Yammer diesel engine and reaches cruising speeds around 8 knots. The boat has been configured with five cabins and three heads, including a laundry room created from a forward cabin space.

The accommodation plan prioritizes comfort for extended voyages. Climate control throughout the main saloon and cabins is paired with a 6 kW generator. Solar panels rated at 660 watts work with a battery management system and five 110 Ah batteries to support continuous refrigeration and freezer use. A 2500 watt inverter provides further electrical flexibility. Fresh water is available from dockside connection, and the galley includes both refrigeration and freezer capacity.

The sail plan consists of a full-batten mainsail, jib, and staysail on removable stays—all relatively recent additions. An electric windlass handles the anchor work, with 80 meters of 12 mm chain. Electric winches assist both the main halyard and jib. A bow thruster tunnel propeller aids maneuvering. Two-blade folding propellers reduce drag under sail.

Recent upgrades include a replacement mast installed in 2019, new sails from 2022 with battens and lazy bag, a laundry machine added in 2023, a full cockpit canopy system completed in 2023, and refreshed solar panels and battery bank that same year. The boat includes a passerelle, deck shower, cockpit cushions, and a complete camping kit that seals the cockpit area.
