At Jeanneau, it’s always exciting watching one of our boats roll off the production line bound for its new owner. But what’s more exciting, is watching that new boat being used and enjoyed by its new owner, going places that only a boat can take you to. So whether you're looking to circumnavigate the globe or simply cross Lake Michigan, Jeanneau is sure to have just the right boat for you, both power and sail.
We reached out to our Jeanneau Community to share their favorite stories aboard their Jeanneau. We are happy with the numerous testimonials we received about the great joys of boating! We invite you to Get to Know Jeanneau through the eyes and ears of so many of our loyal owners.
Fun times in the Canadian North Channel of Lake Huron. All freshwater, rocks, some sandy beaches, pine trees and Loons calling out their distinctive squawk. Summer of 2019 my wife and I spent a month cruising and enjoying everything about our year 2000 Sun Odyssey 40DS. Most nights we anchored out; all chain rode and a Delta anchor allowed secure sleep. No sacrifices in living aboard! - Dee & Pat Clark
Sailing has always been a family activity for us, a way to pass on seamanship, navigation, boat handling, and working with a crew towards a common goal. This is a shot of our crew: nephews Quinn and Rowan, friends Kyle and Josh, and myself, during a fast 18-day Atlantic crossing from Madeirato Barbados on our Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 44i. This was shot at dinner time. Yes, of course, we had fresh fish! - Tor Johnson
So many fun family hours aboard our Jeanneau, it had been a life-changer for us. Headed out tomorrow for some sunshine and peace. As a frontline ER nurse, it’s been the only way to clear my mind and find joy, so thankful for our NC 795 ❤ - Nicole Kinard
The name of our Sun Odyssey 349 is Lo Lee Ta and the photo was taken as we sailed away from Elliott Key on Key Biscayne with our puppy Bosun. We love that the boat is so easy to sail land very stable. - Jeffrey Hirsh

We can’t begin to describe the incredible adventures we’ve enjoyed aboard “Outlander” our Jeanneau 349 built by the craftsmen & craftswomen in the Marion plant. We took delivery of her in June of 2019 in St Augustine, FL, and have since sailed almost 1500nm on her in the last 10 months alone. My Fiancé and I (pictured) embarked on one of the greatest adventures of our lives sailing her from St. Augustine down the Florida Coastline, across the Gulf Stream through the Bahamas, Exumas, and finally down to the Dominican Republic where we work and live most of the year. As we looked through the hundreds of pictures we took along the way it was very difficult to find one that totally embodied the enjoyment and peace she brings to us. The pictures were taken as we sailed past Freeport, Bahamas en route to the Berry Islands shortly after a pod of about 18 Dolphins showed up and played in our bow wake for a while. They even brought along their babies as if to bid us a safe and pleasant voyage from their family to ours! - Dave & Sherry Hardin
This picture is one of my most memorable pictures. I detest cold weather and yet here we are wearing foul weather gear in temps hovering around 28° F on an overcast February 6th in 2015 in Deltaville, Virginia. We had just finished our successful sea trial on our "new to us" Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 37. What made the moment especially awesome for me was my wife's shared excitement about our new boat. Five years later, we've enjoyed sailing the Chesapeake on Opie Bea and the British Virgin Islands on charters. Even sweeter are the many extraordinarily wonderful friends we've made along the way! “There is nothing, absolutely nothing, half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats. - Paul & Karen Novak
I loved my Gin Fizz for her good sea-keeping, and because she was easy and fun to sail. You can imagine what she means to me, after helping me fulfil my dream! - Laura Dekker
In 2020, we were with friends in Les Sables d’Olonne, when I was intrigued by a line of boats leaving the channel. My curiosity aroused, I headed to the harbor and realized that Jeanneau was carrying out sea trials on the Leader 10. I fell in love immediately! A few weeks later, we went to the Nautic boat show in Paris to order her. This meeting with Jeanneau resulted in five happy years and after driving 9,200 miles on our Leader 10, we bought our Leader 40. On what pretext? We wanted easier storage of our folding bikes on board! However, I admit that we really loved the separate shower cubicle, the comfortable saloon for socializing and the aft sun deck! I am still highly impressed by how she cuts comfortably through the sea even when the swell builds. We drove 1,300 miles last year and have spent nearly 100 hours at sea this year. We use the boat and its engine power a lot and she is always reliable! The life of a Leader owner is similar to when you join a family and you begin to take an interest in each new member, knowing they are full of promise.
