Description




FeaturesNEW HORIZONS is a well presented 1997 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 28.1, offering bright accommodation, modern styling, and the easy handling Fractional Rig and Fin Keel that makes this model so popular with coastal cruisers and first time yacht owners. This later build example benefits from a major navigation and electronics upgrade in 2022, Coppercoat, a folding propeller, and a tiller mounted Autohelm, making her exceptionally well equipped for single handed sailing, and club racing with current IRC rating.Highlights include but are not limited to:• Coppercoated• Yanmar 1GM10 Diesel Engine with Folding Prop• Raymarine Axiom Plotter with WIFI Tablet @ Chart Table• Raymarine RAY53 VHF/DSC Radio• AutopilotBroker's view: "A really nicely presented boat, ideal club racer or coastal cruiser.
