Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 43

The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 43 Legende is a popular family cruiser which has proved to be a capable passage maker. With a comfortable three double cabin layout, she is well suited to spending extended periods aboard. Simple to sail short handed with her furling sails assisted by an electric winch, Opah is a great example that has been carefully used and maintained to a good standard. A well equipped, high quality boat of this age is a rare find, especially when so sensibly priced. It is clear that previous and current owners have taken good care of this boat. Early viewing advised.
