Broker Remarks

Shearwater is a superbly maintained Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 409 that has been consistently upgraded by her meticulous owner. Significant enhancements include new standing rigging (January 2024), a major 10-year engine service (2024), coppercoat refreshed on the bow and leading edge of the keel (2024), and numerous safety, navigation, and comfort improvements over the years. She really is a lovely and well maintained example.  

The saloon, reupholstered in 2021, offers a modern, inviting space, and the custom divan mattress in the forward cabin adds extra comfort. With an extensive inventory that includes a bow thruster, electric halyard winch, AIS transponder, and solar panel system, Shearwater is exceptionally well-equipped for coastal and offshore cruising.

Whether you're looking for a capable cruiser ready to sail away or a boat that has been thoughtfully maintained and improved, Shearwater is an excellent option that stands out in the market.
