This twin personality is perfectly illustrated by the new line of Jeanneau cruising sailboats. The best example is the new smooth roof design and the new deck layout. The helmseats set out to the cockpit coamings provide the ideal position for steering. On the performance side, the keel/ballast ratio improves sailing stability, and the generous sail area keeps the boat moving well under all conditions.

The SUN ODYSSEY 37 is an extremely comfortable boat below. The layout is designed for practical and comfortable cruising, and there is an exceptional use of available space. In the two cabin version, the interior is centered around a salon / L-shaped galley with a traditional nav table to port, and located aft is a very large and well-ventilated washroom with a marine head and shower. The two cabins spread across both the full forward beam and to starboard the wide space aft, all with comfortable berths, lots of floor space, storage cabinets and lockers, and opening hull ports for good ventilation. In the three cabin version, the classic layout has two separate cabins aft and a large forward owner's cabin with all the amenities for comfortable living.
