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 was 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
THE USERS OF THE BOAT ARE INFORMED OF THE FOLLOWING:
This user guide/owner's manual is not a maintenance or repair guide. In case of difficulty do not
hesitate to call on the services of your concessionaire JEANNEAU.
Any alterations which may affect the safety specifications of the boat must be assessed, carried out
and recorded by persons qualified to do so. Any change in the distribution of the vessel's mass (adding
a radar, altering the mast, changing an engine, etc) may affect the stability, trim and performance of your
boat.
The SPBI shipyards may not be held responsible for any alterations which they have not approved.
The complete crew must be equipped appropriately.
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.
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 a secure navigation. Always adapt the speed and direction of your boat to the conditions of the sea.
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 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.
Breakers are serious dangers to stability.
The water in the bilge shall be kept at its minimum.
The stability may be reduced when you tow a boat or when you lift heavy weights with the davits
or the boom.
If your boat is equipped with a liferaft, carefully read the instructions. The boat must have on board
all the proper safety equipment (lifejackets, buoys, harness, flares, liferafts, etc.) depending on the type
of vessel, its certification, the country, the weather conditions encountered, etc.
The crew must be familiar with the use of all the safety equipment and the emergency safety
procedures (MOB, towing etc.). Sailing schools organise regular training sessions.

The safety regulations as defined by the sailing code and enforced by the ’’COLREG’’ should be

in the appropriate chapters of this manual.
IDENTIFICATION OF VESSEL:

on the starboard aft side.

alterations in design, layout or equipment which they judge necessary.
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 10240 standard requirements, it has a
