2013 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509

2013 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509 – Five-Cabin Performance Cruiser

The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509 blends modern performance with refined comfort, making her a versatile choice for private cruising or charter. Launched in 2013, this five-cabin yacht accommodates up to twelve guests with ease, offering space and flexibility for extended adventures at sea.

Her sleek Philippe Briand design combines a powerful yet manageable sail plan with twin helm stations for confident handling. Equipped with a Yanmar 75hp diesel engine and saildrive, she cruises at 7–8 knots and reaches 9 knots under power. The fractional sloop rig with furling mainsail and genoa delivers strong upwind performance, while all lines led aft, self-tailing winches, and modern sail controls make handling straightforward from the cockpit. A bow thruster, autopilot, and full navigation suite add precision and peace of mind offshore.

The interior features warm teak finishes and an intelligent layout. Two aft doubles, two forward doubles, a bunk cabin, and a convertible saloon berth create comfortable sleeping arrangements for larger crews. Three heads ensure convenience, while the linear galley and U-shaped saloon provide a welcoming hub for dining and relaxation. Generous hatches and ports keep the interior bright and well ventilated.

On deck, the Sun Odyssey 509 offers a spacious cockpit with twin wheels, teak flooring, bimini, sprayhood, and an aft swim platform. Whether entertaining at anchor or passage-making offshore, she balances practicality with style.

A proven five-cabin bluewater cruiser, this Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 509 is an attractive opportunity for those seeking performance, comfort, and versatility.
