Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 349 means looking at a 2014-era Marc Lombard design built in Les Herbiers that replaced the 33i in the Sun Odyssey range. These are modern cruisers with twin rudders, a chined hull and a no-backstay fractional rig, and the used fleet splits between private and ex-charter examples that have seen varied use. Knowing the layout choices and the few handling quirks recorded will help you sort a good one from a tired one.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin boats are the more common on the used market, but both configurations turn up. The three-cabin version gives three true double berths and a single head, while the two-cabin layout trades the third berth for a larger head with a sizable stall shower and extra lazarette stowage to port. Either way the saloon carries about 6ft 3in of headroom, an L-shaped galley to starboard and a drop-leaf table that seats four. Ex-charter examples are common, so check interior wear against the layout rather than assuming private-owner condition.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Commonly fitted gear on used 349s includes a chartplotter, autopilot, swim platform, bimini, cockpit shower and heating, so most boats will already suit temperate cruising. Often-seen additions are a furling main, hot water, solar and AIS, pointing to owners who valued self-sufficiency and visibility. Less common but worth noting as owner upgrades are a code zero, teak decks, a dodger, bow thruster, asymmetric spinnaker, lithium batteries, inverter or a spinnaker — a buyer wanting short-handed downwind range should confirm whether a bowsprit chute and code zero are actually present rather than assuming them.
What to Inspect
The twin-rudder helm draws one recorded caveat: testers found the wheels lack feel, the sole drawback of that setup anchor. That same review reported the jib's leech authority is lost when the sail is reefed anchor. Both are handling traits rather than structural faults, but on a used boat with unknown rigging history, confirm the friction-ring jib leads and rigid vang are intact, since they govern twist and sheeting without conventional tracks.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats appear in the United States, Croatia, Greece, the United Kingdom, Italy and France. For a buyer, the short list is: decide two- versus three-cabin early; verify the shoal or deep keel matches your grounds; confirm the furling main and autopilot if you want easy solo handling; and sail her hard to feel the twin-rudder feedback and the reefed-jib leech before committing.
