WELCOME ABOARD
Madam, Sir,
You have just taken delivery of your new JEANNEAU boat and we thank you for the
confidence you have shown us in ordering a vessel of our brand. The whole JEANNEAU
team welcomes you aboard.
A JEANNEAU is made to last, in order to bring you all the pleasure you expect from a
vessel over a period of many years. Each boat is subject to the utmost attention to detail
from the design stage right through to launching.
This manual is meant to help you to enjoy your boat comfortably and safely. It includes the
boat specifications, the equipment provided or installed, the systems and tips on her
operation and maintenance. Some of the equipment described in this manual may be
optional.
Your JEANNEAU dealer will be able to help and advise you in the use and maintenance
of your boat.
Read this user's guide/owner's manual carefully and get to know your boat before using it.
The better you know your vessel the more pleasure you will get from being at the helm.
The sea is a source for learning. Caution based on a knowledge of one's own limits and
those of the boat is the pre-requisite for an accomplished sailor.
Even when your boat has been adapted for them, the sea and wind conditions
corresponding to the design categories A, B, C and D may vary, ranging from severe
conditions to strong storms subject to the risks of exceptional waves and gusts of wind, this
meaning they are dangerous conditions in which only an experienced, fit and well trained
crew manoeuvring a well maintained boat can sail in a satisfactory manner.
This user's guide/owner's manual is not a course in safety at sea or about sailing sense. If
this is your first boat or if you change to a new type of boat which you are not used to, get
some training in boat control and sailing to ensure your safety and comfort. Your dealer,
your international sailing association or your yacht club will be very happy to recommend
local sailing schools or professional instructors.
Make sure the sea and wind conditions will correspond to the category of your boat and
you and your crew are able to handle the boat in these conditions.
Always listen to the weather forecast before you put out to sea.
Keep this user's guide/owner's manual in a safe place and hand it over to the new owner
if you sell your boat.
You are advised to keep all the instructions and manuals provided by the boat equipment
manufacturers (accessories...) in the same place as this manual.

INTRODUCTION
We share a common passion for the sea: we, JEANNEAU as shipbuilders and you who
want to live your passion on the Seven Seas.
We are delighted to welcome you to the great family of JEANNEAU boat owners and we
congratulate you on it.
This manual is meant to help you to enjoy your boat comfortably and safely. It includes the
boat specifications, the equipment provided or installed, the systems and tips on her
operation and maintenance.
Read this manual carefully before you put out to sea so that you can make the most of her
and avoid any damage and any trouble. Get to know your boat before you sail.
We keep improving our boats as we want you to benefit from the technological
developments, new equipment or materials and our own experience. That is the reason
why the specifications and information given are not contractual, they may be modified
without prior notice or up dates.
This owner's manual is designed in accordance with the ISO 10 240 standard
requirements, it has a general purpose and it may sometimes list some equipment or
accessories or deal with some points or questions that are not relevant to your own boat.
In case of doubt refer to the inventory list you were given when you bought your boat.
Our network of JEANNEAU authorized dealers will be at your disposal to help you get
acquainted with your boat and will be the most qualified to take care of her maintenance.
If this is your first boat or if you change to a new type of boat which you are not used to, get
some training in boat control and sailing to ensure your safety and comfort. Your dealer,
your international sailing association or your yacht club will be very happy to recommend
local sailing schools or professional instructors.
Even if everything has been provided for and designed for the safety of the boat and the
safety of her users, don't forget that sailing highly depends on the weather conditions, the
sea condition, and that only an experienced and very fit crew, handling a well-maintained
boat can sail satisfactorily.

The sea and wind conditions that correspond to the design categories A, B or C are
changeable and are dependent on the hazards of unusually strong waves or gusty winds.
Therefore total safety cannot be guaranteed, even if your boat meets the requirements of
a category.
The sea and the water are not the natural environment of Man and one has to respect their
laws and strength.
Adapt the use of your boat to her condition that wears out with time and use.
Any boat, however solid she may be, may be severely damaged if badly used. This is not
compatible with safe navigation. Always adapt the speed and direction of your boat to the
conditions of the sea.
The 'COLREG', an international regulation in order to prevent collision at sea, published by
the International Maritime Organization, specifies the steering and course regulations, the
navigation lights etc. throughout the world Make sure you know these regulations and you
have on board a manual that explains them.
In numerous countries, a licence, an authorization or a training course is requested. Make
sure you have this legal authorization before you use your boat.
Always use an experienced technician for the maintenance of your boat, the fitting of
accessories and the carrying out of small modifications. The written authorization of the
builder or his legal representative is compulsory for modifications that alter the
specifications of the boat, in particular the vertical layout of the grounds (putting up of a
radar, modification of the mast, change of the engine etc.).
Always listen to the weather forecast before you put out to sea.
Make sure the sea and wind conditions will correspond to the category of your boat and
you and your crew are able to handle the boat in these conditions.
For the essential or optional equipment (engine, electronics etc.) refer to their respective
manual delivered with your boat.

The users of the boat are informed of the following:
- The entire crew must be trained properly.
- The boat shall not be loaded more with than the maximum load recommended by the
builder, in particular the total weight of the food supplies, of the different equipment that
are not supplied by the builder and of the persons on board. The weight of the boat
shall be properly distributed.
- The water in the bilge shall be kept at its minimum.
- The stability is reduced when you add weight in the upper parts.
- In case of heavy weather, the hatches, lockers and doors shall be closed in order to
minimize the risk of water coming in.
- The stability may be reduced when you tow a boat.
- Breaking waves are a serious threat to stability.
- If your boat is equipped with a liferaft, carefully read the instructions. In the boat there
shall be all the proper safety equipment (harness, flares, liferaft etc.) depending on the
type of boat, the country, the weather
- The crew must be familiar with the use of all the safety equipment and the emergency
safety procedures (MOB, towing etc.).
- Anyone on the deck shall wear a life jacket or a buoyancy aid. Please note that in some
countries it is compulsory to wear an homologated buoyancy aid permanently.
- Some of the data is shown on the manufacturer's plate fixed to the boat. The
explanation of the data is given in the appropriate chapters of this manual.
Keep this manual in a safe place and hand it over to the new owner if you sell your boat.

Index H
Category A: At high sea
The boat is designed to sail in winds that may exceed Beaufort force 8 and in waves of a
significant height of 4 metres and more.
This craft is largely self-sufficient. Abnormal conditions such as hurricanes are excluded.
Such conditions may be encountered on extended voyages, for example across oceans, or
inshore when unsheltered from the wind and waves for several hundred nautical miles.
Category B: In open sea
The boat is designed to sail in winds not exceeding Beaufort force 8 and in corresponding seas
(waves of a significant height of less than or equal to 4 metres).
Such conditions may be encountered on offshore voyages of sufficient length, or on coastal
waters when unsheltered from the wind and waves for several dozens of nautical miles.
These conditions may also be experienced on inland seas of sufficient size for the wave height
to be generated.
Category C: Near to the coast
The boat is designed to sail in winds not exceeding Beaufort force 6 and in corresponding seas
(waves of a significant height of less than or equal to 2 metres). You may meet with such
conditions in exposed inland waters, in estuaries and in coastal waters with moderate weather
conditions.
Category D: In sheltered waters
The boat is designed to sail in winds that may exceed Beaufort force 4 and in waves of a
significant height of 0,5 metres and more.
Such conditions may be encountered in sheltered inland waters, and in coastal waters in fine
weather.
NOTE:
- The significant wave height is the mean height of the highest one-third of the waves, which
approximately corresponds to the wave height estimated by an experienced observer. Some
waves will be double this height.
- The creation of different design categories results from the need to distinguish between
different levels of risk according to the construction of the boats.
"The parameters for the characteristics are established to define the conditions of navigation
which each category may encounter; they serve purely to evaluate the boat designs and are
not to be used to limit the geographical areas in which these boats may operate".
- One boat may be classed in several design categories at the same time, each with their
different maximum capabilities.
