Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42 DS 2007

Introducing a remarkable new listing: the 2007 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42 DS, impeccably maintained by its current owners without any budget constraints, and it has never been used for chartering! To highlight the model, Cruising World's Herb McCormick once praised its clever and cool design. At its launch, the 42 DS was Jeanneau’s latest and smallest take on the deck-saloon sailboat, showcasing the brand's mastery of this concept. Its unique sloping raised deck features the signature cat’s-eye windows, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. This 42-footer is designed with simplicity in mind, featuring a comfortable double cabin at the front, a bright saloon/nav area/galley in the center, and a welcoming owner’s cabin at the rear. Additionally, there are two well-integrated heads—one in the V-berth cabin and another at the base of the companionway—ensuring they don't intrude on the living space. Throughout the boat, you'll find numerous thoughtful features, like a spacious hanging locker and ample storage in the forward cabin, with tanks cleverly hidden beneath the V-berth. The elegant laminated-wood flooring is both stylish and durable, while the Scheiber electrical panel provides clear readings of voltage, fuel, and water levels. Handholds are plentiful and chic, ensuring safety on this beamy vessel, and the port and starboard settees double as excellent sea berths. In the aft owner’s stateroom, the expansive 77-inch-wide bed offers an unparalleled experience for a 42-foot sailboat. For maintenance, the companionway-ladder module can be easily removed for optimal engine access. Performance-wise, the 42 DS glided effortlessly at 8 knots close-reaching with both main and full genoa. While the boat can feel overpowered in strong winds, adjusting the Profurl headsail furler provides a simple solution. This particular vessel is equipped with a 5-foot-2-inch shoal keel and a fixed three-bladed propeller, which will soon be swapped for a folding prop to enhance its excellent sailing potential. Steering from either of the twin wheels is a thrilling experience, backed by an array of Harken hardware on deck. The helm station includes radar and a chart plotter, though it lacks repeaters below deck—a preference that may vary among sailors. Nevertheless, having immediate access to information while navigating the shallow waters of Annapolis is certainly beneficial. Discover more about this impressive vessel in the details that follow.
