About the Jeanneau 479

The all-new Sun Odyssey Jeanneau 479 reflects the latest design trend that started with the Sun Odyssey 409. Dynamic lines, a hard chine on the hull, lots of hatches and windows along with bevelled edges on the deck combine to form a powerful and straight forward design from the pen of Philippe Briand. But her natural beauty is more than skin deep. A closer look reveals an innovative deck plan that makes sailing easy. Three themes shape the Sun Odyssey 479: a fast, seaworthy sailboat, simple to use deck and sail plans and a high-quality interior.

The seaworthiness of the Sun Odyssey 479 is most appreciated in offshore conditions. The boat inspires confidence as every detail has been carefully considered to give the boat more performance while remaining easy to sail. A high-aspect rig comes in four versions adaptable to each sailor’s particular region or taste. The first makes use of the high-aspect rig to carry a 105% jib and a large mainsail.

Both the mainsheet and jib sheets disappear into the coachroof and are lead back to the winches at the helm. The second sail plan uses the same jib along with an in-mast furling mainsail. The third sail plan is performance-oriented and combines a large, overlapping 140% genoa along with a fully-battened mainsail.

The fourth, and last version, includes a self-tacking jib mounted on a track in front of the mast. Two different keel options 2.20m and 1.60m can be used for all of the sail plans. The Philippe Briand designed Jeanneau 479 was carefully studied to make sure that each choice offered exceptional stability and control in all conditions. When the wind is not weak, the powerful 54HP Yanmar sail drive pushes the boat over 8 knots.
