The Sun Odyssey 24.2 is a French trailerable sailboat that was designed by Jacques Fauroux as a cruiser and first built in 1998.[1][2][3][4][5]

Production

The design was built by Jeanneau in France, starting in 1989, but it is now out of production.[1][2][5][6][7]

Design

The Sun Odyssey 24.2 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a nearly plumb stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel with a weighted bulb or optional stub keel and centerboard. It displaces 4,200 lb (1,905 kg).[1][2]

The keel-equipped version of the boat has a draft of 3.61 ft (1.10 m), while the centerboard-equipped version has a draft of 4.59 ft (1.40 m) with the centerboard extended and 2.13 ft (0.65 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][2]

The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering, but an inboard engine was a factory option.[1][2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, two straight settees in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a double berth on the port side. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is U-shaped and is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink. The head is located just aft of companionway on the starboard side.[1][2]

The design has a hull speed of 6.24 kn (11.56 km/h).[2]
