Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349 Swing Keel – The best-selling 10-meter sailboat in the world
The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349 has been among the absolute top in its class for years and has become the best-selling 10-meter sailboat in the world. This is no coincidence. With its modern hull design by Marc Lombard, excellent sailing characteristics and surprisingly spacious interior, the Sun Odyssey 349 offers a perfect balance between comfort, performance and ease of use.
This version is equipped with the highly sought-after Swing Keel with variable draft. The draught is adjustable from just 1.26 meters with the keel up to no less than 2.54 meters with the keel fully down. This allows you to combine excellent sailing characteristics and stability on open water with the freedom to explore shallow sailing areas, dry harbours and the Wadden Sea. The variable draught makes this version particularly versatile and significantly increases the sailing area.
On deck, the spacious cockpit immediately catches the eye, equipped with ergonomic benches, a clear steering position and wide gangways that ensure safe and comfortable movement on board. The double steering wheels offer excellent visibility when manoeuvring and make it particularly easy to access the fold-out swimming platform. The rigging and lines are clearly guided to the cockpit, making it easy to sail solo or with a small crew.
Inside, the Sun Odyssey 349 offers a remarkably spacious and bright interior. Thanks to the large hull windows and roof hatches, the saloon is flooded with daylight. The practical layout features a comfortable saloon, a well-equipped longitudinal kitchen, a spacious wet room and spacious cabins with plenty of storage space. This makes the boat not only ideal for relaxed weekend trips, but also excellent for longer holidays on board.
Under sail, the Sun Odyssey 349 shows why it is so loved worldwide. With the Swing Keel fully lowered and a draft of 2.54 meters, you benefit from excellent sailing performance and stability. When shallower water is sought, the draught can be reduced to just 1.26 meters. The modern underwater hull provides a stable course, light steering and excellent performance in both low and high winds.
The combination of comfort, safety, sporty sailing characteristics and the great flexibility of the variable draught makes this Sun Odyssey 349 suitable for both novice and experienced sailors.
