The professional's opinion
An interesting cruising sailboat due to its 3-cabin layout and especially its low engine hours. The hull cleaning and engine overhaul carried out in May 2026 are also noteworthy. On the other hand, the refurbishment of the exterior teak should be incorporated into the purchase plan. I find this boat particularly suitable for a couple or a family looking for a Sun Odyssey of this size for regular sailing.

The engine currently has only 131 hours (variable). The boat continues to be in use during its marketing period, which may cause this number to slightly change until sold.
Recent maintenance is a key point for this unit. The hull service and engine overhaul were carried out in May 2026, providing a future buyer with recent information on these essential aspects.
The exterior teak elements, however, require some work. They will need to be refinished to restore a better aesthetic appearance. This detail is explicitly mentioned to ensure future visitors have a transparent view of the boat's condition.
The 3 cabins configuration is a real asset for a cruising program. It allows a couple to have additional space for hosting or storing gear, and is also ideal for a family looking for a 3-cabin sailing yacht for sale to navigate regularly.
