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 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.
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.

2/122
5.1.3, 5.2 ISO 10 240
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 a secure 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.

3/122
5.1.3, 5.2 ISO 10 240
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 or when you lift heavy weights with the davits
or the boom.
- Breakers are serious dangers 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.
- A part of the data is shown on the builder's plate fixed to the boat. The explanation of these 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.

Category A 'In the open sea'
This boat is designed for sailing in winds that may exceed force 8 on the Beaufort scale and in waves of
a significant height of 4 m and more, and the boat is to a large extent self-sufficient. Unusual conditions
such as hurricanes are excluded. You may meet with such conditions when you sail long crossings, for
instance across the oceans, or close to the shore, when you are not protected from the wind or waves
over several hundreds of nautical miles.
The significant height of a wave is the average height of the upper third of the waves, that approximately
corresponds to the height of a wave an experienced observer can assess. Some waves will be twice as
high as this value.
The conformity of the SUN ODYSSEY 49 model to the 97/25/CE directive is attested by Bureau
Veritas.
