Three main concepts shape the Sun Odyssey 439: a fast, seaworthy sailboat, simple to use deck and sail plans and a high-quality interior.
The ketch sail plan, designed and engineered by Perini Navi's Mast Division measures 1,500 square meters. Both the main and the mizzen masts are in aluminum and are respectively 58.37 and 47.97 meters high. The booms are both in carbon fiber and have in-boom furling systems.
This yacht has especially ample areas for enjoying life on deck with two cockpits, one fore, one aft, which allow owners and guests to enjoy generously comfortable outdoor spaces.

A tribute to the sea, the element from which every form draws life. This is the thought that gave rise to the creative idea behind the new Azimut 58: ample flanks from which large spaces take shape in which to live a direct relationship with the sea. Generous volumes whose forms reflect the waves of the sea.
The Azimut 58 Flybridge, designed by Stefano Righini, reflects in the seagreen color, dedicated to the first model, the beauty of the nature of islands and atolls and diffuses in the interiors of the saloon the luminosity of the external panoramas through huge expanses of glass and the new rectangular panoramic windows of the master cabin, for the first time openable. The large, square bow, a flybridge that unites the dining area with the sun deck in a rational way: distinctive features of the external volumes that ensure maximum comfort and pleasure of onboard life.
Numerous deck hatches and portholes flood the inside with light emphasising the rich materials found throughout: leather, stainless steel, and the finely varnished woodwork. The Jeanneau 53 offers a level of standard equipment unequalled in her class. A luxurious lounge sits opposite a wide and comfortable dining area and just forward of the spacious, well-equipped kitchen. Each interior layout features optimised ergonomics and storage. With numerous interior layouts, the Jeanneau 53 has been designed to fit every need.
