Taking the competition by surprise, Jeanneau had presented in spring 2017 the first production liveaboard sailboat equipped with a stepless deck layout, making it easier to move around on board. The concept? By integrating elegant side decks that slope gently aft down to cockpit level, allowing crew members to move around the entire deck without stepping over a coaming or step.
The Jeanneau shipyard first integrated this revolutionary concept into the larger Sun Odyssey models, before gradually rolling it out to the smaller models in the range. After a preview presentation at the last Düsseldorf boat show in January 2024, we've been lucky enough to sail on board off the Côte d'Azur.
You'll find all the details in this four-part review, in which we look at the genesis of the Sun Odyssey 350, its features, its performance at sea, and its competitive pricing.
