2008 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42DS | Odin

Odin is a beautifully presented 2008 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 42DS, offering the space, comfort and effortless handling that have made this deck-saloon cruiser so highly regarded. Presented in the desirable two-cabin, two-head owner’s configuration, she combines a bright, airy saloon with an impressive full-width aft owner’s cabin, creating exceptional accommodation for a yacht of this size.

Designed by Marc Lombard, Odin measures 13.55 metres overall and features a fin keel with bulb. Her deck-saloon design provides excellent natural light and comfortable living spaces, making her equally suited to relaxed coastal cruising, extended passages or comfortable liveaboard use. The signed inventory confirms Australian tax-paid status and antifouling completed in 2025.

Power comes from a dependable Yanmar 4JH4AE 55hp diesel with shaft drive and a three-blade feathering propeller. The inventory records approximately 1,042 hours on the engine display, with a recent service. A bow thruster further simplifies close-quarters manoeuvring and docking.

Sail handling is configured for easy short-handed cruising, with in-mast furling, a furling headsail and electric Lewmar halyard winch. The standing rigging is recorded as approximately 18 months old, while the sail inventory includes a spare mainsail and gennaker.

Her cruising systems are equally well considered. Solar generation comprises two 465W panels plus a 100W coachroof panel, providing a total of approximately 1,030W, supported by three near-new 150Ah house batteries, a Victron 1200W inverter and a portable Kings 3.5kVA generator. A portable air-conditioning unit provides additional comfort in the owner’s cabin.

Navigation is handled by a comprehensive Raymarine package including an Axiom 12-inch cockpit chartplotter, A-series navigation display, ST6000+ autopilot, wind and depth instruments, radar and GPS. VHF communications and a new Fusion stereo complete the electronics package.

Completing the package is a new Highfield 3.1m tender with Yamaha 8hp two-stroke outboard, davits, full boat cover, bimini and dodger. With recent rigging, strong energy generation, excellent owner’s accommodation and a practical cruising inventory, Odin represents an attractive opportunity for buyers seeking a comfortable and capable 42-foot cruising yacht.
