About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Sun Odyssey 509 Super Premier
The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509 represents Philippe Briand's masterclass in blending performance with habitability. This bareboat sailing yacht accommodates up to 12 guests across four cabins, making her equally suited to serious sailors seeking uncompromising seaworthiness and families prioritising comfort. Built in 2014, she retains the timeless proportions that define the Sun Odyssey lineage whilst delivering the rigour modern cruising demands.
Her high-aspect ratio sail plan offers exceptional versatility, whether you're pushing hard to windward or ghosting through anchorages. The rig adapts seamlessly across different sailing conditions, whilst innovations in naval architecture ensure predictable handling and confidence in challenging seas. Deck hardware centres on self-tailing winches and electric primary winch systems, reducing crew fatigue on longer passages and enabling intuitive sail management.
Below deck, air conditioning and cabin fans maintain comfort in tropical waters, whilst entertainment amenities (television, DVD player, MP3/phone connectivity) cater to downtime in protected anchorages. The fully equipped galley and spacious saloon facilitate both independent cruising and social gatherings. An electric anchor windlass and dinghy with outboard engine simplify daily operations.
