The 2013 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 379 presented here is a reliable and remarkably equipped marine sailing yacht, ideal for a coastal or offshore cruising program. Designed by Marc Lombard and Jeanneau Design, this model is known for the balance of its hull, its ease of use and the quality of its fittings. Priced at €125,000, VAT paid, it offers a rare opportunity in the Mediterranean family cruising market, especially as it benefits from a range of recent options and equipment, including solar panels, lithium batteries, full Simrad electronics, a motorised tender and an electric windlass. With 1,140 hours of operation, its 29 horsepower Yanmar saildrive engine guarantees a very low consumption of 2 to 3 liters per hour, for a cruising speed of 6 to 6.5 knots and a maximum speed of about 7 knots.
With an overall length of 11.34 meters and a beam of 3.76 meters, this Sun Odyssey 379 offers a generous interior volume and a particularly welcoming cockpit. Thanks to its design category A, it is authorized to sail on the high seas and can safely carry up to eight people. The teak cockpit, the double steering wheels, the opening platform and the presence of a hot and cold shower head reinforce comfort at anchor and when sailing. The electric windlass, combined with two fore and aft anchors, makes manoeuvring easy, while the four self-tailing winches and Dyform single-strand rig ensure smooth and safe use of the sails.
This model has three cabins, offering six comfortable berths, making it an ideal unit for families or groups of friends. The light wood interior, neat floors and blackout curtains create a warm and pleasant atmosphere. The L-shaped kitchen is equipped with an oven, a refrigerator to the group replaced in 2024, a double sink, a coffee machine and plenty of storage. The bathroom includes a manual toilet, a sink, a shower and gratings, a guarantee of comfort and durability. The hot water supply is provided by a tank, and an internet connection via Starlink completes the modern on-board services.
Simrad electronics include an NSS8 GPS, depth sounder, loch/speedo, autopilot, VHF DSC, full AIS and wind vane. Energy monitoring is provided by a battery monitor, a Victron 120 A charger, a Victron 3000 W converter and two 100 Ah lithium batteries installed in 2024. Four solar panels of 100 W each guarantee a high autonomy at anchor. A TV, a Fusion sound system and four speakers complete the comfort on board.
Finally, this Sun Odyssey 379 comes with a 2.3-meter 3D Tender tender and a 3.5 hp Mercury engine, as well as a large set of accessories such as the dock extension, the hood, the bimini (to be replaced), mosquito nets, blackout curtains and several protective awnings. The 4W six-person life raft, which can be overhauled in 2026, provides additional safety for long sailing.
This sailboat offers excellent value for money. It is a complete, neat, well-monitored and immediately ready to sail unit, perfectly suited to those looking for a comfortable, self-sufficient and reliable cruise in the Mediterranean or beyond.
