Description
Wauquiez Opium 39 for Sale "Jappeloup"
JAPPELOUP is a rare performance cruiser that blends offshore capability with refined comfort. This Wauquiez Opium 39, designed by Marc Lombard, is known for speed, balance, and a level of construction that inspires confidence on every passage. She offers a lively, responsive helm while maintaining a warm, practical interior for extended cruising.
Launched in 2011, JAPPELOUP shows beautifully. Her white GRP hull is vacuum-infused for strength and weight control, and her deep fin keel delivers true performance. A cutter-rig setup, retractable bowsprit, and a versatile sail plan enhance her range, including a 2025 full-batten mainsail and several recent X-Voiles storm sails. She moves easily between coastal cruising and serious offshore miles.
The interior features three double cabins, a bright saloon, and an efficient L-shaped galley. Webasto heating supports comfortable year-round sailing. Upgraded systems include lithium batteries, Raymarine Axiom electronics, improved anchoring gear, and a full cockpit tent and Bimini for longer stays aboard.
A reliable Yanmar 29hp engine complements her sailing power. Safety upgrades include a 2024 liferaft, EPIRB, and thorough equipment list. PRIMROSE stands out as a well-prepared, performance-minded cruiser ready for her next voyage.
