Jeanneau’s world premieres at this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival will include the Sun Odyssey 415, which launches the ninth generation of the historic Sun Odyssey series. Jeanneau designed the sailing monohull with the Piaton Yacht Design company founded by Jean-Marc Piaton, with Marc Lombard Yacht Design Group handling naval architecture.

The new model benefits from the Sun Odyssey 410’s proven hull, which is 12m long with a 4m beam. The hull design features an inverted bow, a continuous, well-defined hull chine, and twin rudders with self-aligning bearings. The Sun Odyssey 415 is offered with the option of four sail plans and three keels.

The yacht features Jeanneau’s signature walkaround side decks and high, protective coamings. The new transom features a backstay that benefits from a position further aft, adding comfort to the twin helms.

Deck hardware is in the recessed cockpit, which has a spacious, versatile table integrating electronics, storage and handrails, while the area also offers easy access to the swim platform.

The interior is just three steps down from the deck via a gently inclined companionway. A new layout starts with an L-shaped galley where features include a removable sink cover/splash guard, and a sponge holder under the sink. Forward, the C-shaped dinette includes storage under the seating for five people.

Opposite is a chart table with storage and a library, flanked by two corner seats, while the guest bathroom is aft to starboard.

The owner’s suite in the bow has an aft-facing bed, hull windows and skylights, and the option of an en-suite bathroom. Aft of the saloon are two guest cabins with aft-facing beds, or one cabin and a workshop.
