Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42

Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42 - WELCOMED CHANGE

WELCOMED CHANGE is a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42 outfitted for Pacific Northwest cruising, with a spacious interior, three private staterooms, and two heads. A generous salon gives everyone room to gather after a day underway, and Webasto forced-air diesel heat keeps the cabin comfortable on cool evenings at anchor. A new Ullman full-batten mainsail and 110% jib were fitted in 2023. The dodger, bimini, and connector provide cockpit shelter in wet weather, while the Garmin chartplotter, Fantom radar, AIS, and autopilot are well suited to longer trips through the San Juans and into British Columbia.

The owner has kept a detailed maintenance and project log dating back to 2009 and prepared a boat-specific operations manual with labeled photos, wiring and plumbing diagrams, operating instructions, and service schedules.
