Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440

The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 redefined modern cruising yacht design when launched, combining innovative ergonomics, effortless movement around the yacht and exceptional comfort into a package that deservedly became a multi-award-winning success.

This beautifully maintained example has been thoughtfully optioned for both relaxed cruising and social racing, creating a yacht that is equally rewarding under sail as it is comfortable at anchor. Carefully specified by an experienced yachtsman, it presents as a complete and exceptionally well-kept package that will impress even the most discerning buyer.

Award-Winning Design for Comfortable Cruising

The Sun Odyssey 440 is renowned for its revolutionary layout and ease of movement onboard. This yacht features a three-cabin layout with twin heads configuration, fully rectangular berths in all cabins, and electric toilets and showers in both heads.

Access below is remarkably easy thanks to just four shallow companionway steps leading into a single-level interior. Once below, there are no awkward changes in floor height and all cabins feature full-height doors, creating a spacious and residential feel throughout the yacht.

The forward owner's cabin is particularly impressive, offering a queen-sized island berth, excellent natural light, and aircraft-style blinds to the hull windows, allowing you to enjoy the view from bed in complete comfort.

Bright and Practical Living Spaces

To port of the companionway is a full-sized navigation station that also works perfectly as a practical onboard workspace.

Forward of this is the U-shaped galley, featuring extensive bench space, excellent storage, and domestic-style refrigeration. An additional 110-litre fridge/freezer is located in the aft port cabin, making the yacht exceptionally well suited to extended cruising.

Opposite the galley is the spacious dinette, while aft to starboard is the guest cabin and adjacent day head.

Excellent Power and Entertainment Systems

The yacht is comprehensively equipped for comfortable cruising away from shore power. Power systems include 4 x 125Ah house batteries, 260W of Bimini-mounted solar, a shore power charging system, a 1800W Xantrex inverter supplying 240V power throughout the yacht, and a battery monitoring system for easy power management.

Entertainment onboard is equally impressive, featuring a Fusion stereo system with subwoofer, Ocean 45 satellite TV, and a 27-inch Smart TV.

Comprehensive Raymarine Electronics Package

The electronics specification is extensive and perfectly suited to both cruising and performance sailing. Equipment includes twin Raymarine Axiom 9-inch MFD/plotters at the helms, an additional 7-inch display at the navigation station, a Raymarine i70 multifunction display, twin mast displays, an AIS700 transceiver, a hydraulic drive autopilot, and a Ray50 VHF radio.

Designed for Easy Handling

Ease of use has clearly been a priority in the specification of this yacht. Features include a retractable bow thruster, electric halyard winch, electric swim platform with remote controls, hot and cold transom shower, BBQ bayonet fitting, and three cockpit lockers plus generous bow locker storage.

The patented walk-around side decks are one of the defining features of the Sun Odyssey 440, allowing safe and effortless movement from cockpit to foredeck without stepping over coamings or obstacles. Combined with lifeline gates and a removable stainless boarding ladder, boarding and moving around the yacht is exceptionally easy.

Impressive Sail Inventory and Sailing Performance

This yacht is beautifully balanced under sail and equipped with a strong and versatile sail wardrobe. Included are a CDX Pro fully battened mainsail on cars with lazy jacks and boom bag, a 122% Dacron furling genoa, a 100% North NPL jib, a gennaker, a carbon whisker pole on track, and Carbonautica steering wheels.

Additional upgrades include enhanced running rigging throughout, upgraded mainsheet strops and furling lines, a rig inspection completed in February, winches recently serviced, and antifouling and engine service completed in December.

Yachts of this calibre and specification rarely become available, particularly examples that have been maintained and upgraded to such a high standard. Combining award-winning design, outstanding comfort, excellent sailing performance and thoughtful specification, this Sun Odyssey 440 is ready to be enjoyed immediately.
