About This Vessel
This 2006 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45, measures 45 ft, and is located in Galesville, Maryland, powered by Yanmar 4JH3-TE 75.00HP.
Seabella is well-maintained by an experienced, attentive and knowledgeable owner: USCG 50-ton Master, ASA instructor 101, 103, 104, 119. This 2-Owner yacht shows very well and has received many updates and upgrades over the years. The 3 cabin / 2 head configuration offers more versatility for guest and storage. Seabella is with a standard rig with an in-mast furling mainsail and furling genoa. The combination makes this yacht Inter-Coastal Waterway (ICW) "friendly" at 63' above the waterline. The current owner's original intention was to plan a long retirement cruise in Seabella, hence all the equipment upgrades. In the end, they decided to invest in a larger yacht that was purpose built to cross oceans. This is a great opportunity to step into a yacht that is well sorted and ready to go blue water sailing.Handling notes from the current owners:Motoring into 30 kts on a 40°F day in early Spring, the cockpit enclosure kept the crew warm, safe and dry in the face of waves and spray coming over the bow.Anchored overnight with an air temperature of 35°F and water temperature of 49°F the Eberspacher heater easily maintained the cabin at a comfortable 66°F.Fin keel and bow thruster make the boat easy to maneuver around a marina in most conditions.Solar and lithium amount to virtually unlimited electricity for most practical purposes of the cruising sailor. It is offered as a convenience by this broker/dealer to its clients and is
