- Now available at Curacao, very low price!- Jeanneau Sun Fizz 40 (1982), ocean-ready, fully equipped and well-maintained cruising yacht with hydraulic lifting keel.
Prepared for long-distance and offshore sailing, suitable for comfortable and self-sufficient liveaboard use.
This yacht has been extensively upgraded and carefully maintained by the current and previous owners, both of whom used her for long voyages, including Atlantic crossings. The classic Jeanneau Sun Fizz design is known for its solid construction and proven seaworthiness.
The sale is due to a change in personal circumstances (expecting a child:) ), not because of any technical issues with the yacht.
Key features include a hydraulic lifting keel (draft 1.35–2.10 m), a very reliable and well maintained Perkins 4.108 diesel engine, and a very complete and up to date sail inventory, including a new mainsail (2025). Steering options consist of an ARIES windvane self-steering system as well as an Autohelm ST3000 electric autopilot.
Navigation and communication equipment include a Raymarine Axiom 9 chartplotter with AIS, depth and speed instruments, wind instruments (wind direction cable to mast to be replaced), VHF radio and Iridium GO satellite communication.
The yacht is equipped for autonomous cruising with solar panels, a wind generator, Victron charging and monitoring systems, ample battery capacity, and generous water and fuel storage. Fresh water can be produced with a manual watermaker (Katadyn Survivor 35) fitted with a new membrane.
The interior has been partly renewed and offers a comfortable layout for extended stays on board.
VAT paid, Dutch registered, with complete documentation (registration, sea letter and tonnage certificate).
The yacht is currently cruising, therefore viewing is by appointment only.
Handover and sale are possible from late February / early March in Sint Maarten or Curaçao.
The yacht will be ready to sail immediately at the time of handover.
