Great services to make the most of your anchorage
The transom is fully tilted, providing an excellent surface for enjoying the anchorage. The system is fluid and doesn't require much physical effort. The swim ladder is in a central position and looks well made. As the water is still a little chilly in April, we won't be using it in real-life conditions.
Tilting the transom reveals the location of the liferaft, also accessible through an opening in the cockpit.
On either side of the tilting transom, two helm seats are located in the corner on each side. This very secluded position gives the helmsman a perfect view of the sail plan, as well as a clear view of the entire deck.
On the other hand, once the helmsman has settled into his position, it will be difficult for a crew member returning from the bow to pass behind him, as the area is a little cramped.
Easy circulation
The cockpit is of conventional design, with a beautiful table seating 6 guests.
Moving around on the aisles is easy, the die is easy to grip, and there's an additional handle on the rollover bar.
On the foredeck, particular attention has been paid to the anchor locker, which has been completely redesigned. On the 349, it suffered from a lack of ergonomics. On the Sun Odyssey 350, the delphinière, underbeam and davit work together perfectly.
Two layout versions
We're aboard the three-cabin version, which offers plenty of storage space for a 35-foot hull. No miracles for storing headsails, so bulky bags are stowed on the bunks.
The two-cabin version has the merit of providing a large locker accessible from the cockpit for dinghies and sail bags. The bathroom is even larger in this second version.
The interior is accessed via a three-step companionway. On the port side, the L-shaped galley is ergonomically designed, and once again offers plenty of storage space. For a 10 m sailboat, the volume of storage space for personal belongings and supplies has really been optimized.
The saloon table is surrounded by two bench seats that can be converted into single berths. An optional chaise longue can be fitted on the port bench seat. The forepeak is occupied by an attractive double berth, which will be the most welcoming of the three cabins on board.
The interior is bathed in natural light thanks to the large openings in the hull and roof.
