Avis authentiques SUN ODYSSEY 389

We purchased our SO 389 three years ago and loved her. Last summer we upgraded to a new SO 410 and spent the summer out cruising her. We were totally impressed with the layout and how she sails. This summer we plan to spend the summer exploring the gulf islands just relaxing in our floating home. And she really feels like “home” when we’re away. Cosy, comfortable and secure. We are planning to attend the summer Jeanneau rendezvous and look forward to meeting new friends. We love our 410!

Graceful lines, sails beautifully. Perfect weekend boat for a small family.

Some rust and water entry into hull/keel line. This was filled with silicon by dealer, no movement suspected.
This is always going to be a problem with separate keel - need unified construction/zero keel.

Buy another brand that doesn't cut so many corners in build quality.

Design is very good. Finish is average. A number of problems with areas of deck non skid apparently due to extraction from plug and shipping. Leaking diesel from fuel tank into cabin. Currently being investigated. Fault in boom caused breakage of outhaul. Warranty claim currently denied.

Insgesamt ein sehr schönes Boot mit ansprechenden Linien, guter Geschwindigkeit und durch den schwenkkiel mit breitem Revierzugang. Das Innenlayout ist insbesondere für lange Menschen komfortabel.

Nice family cruiser, compact and easy handling.

Sailing is nice and handling easy even for beginners. Design and interior size very good for 2-4 persons
Quality of details not satisfying like: Screws, fasteners, Cooking area, Metals are already rusty after short time etc. Quality level is middle class

Overall we are very satisfied with all aspects of our SO 389. A few minor teething issues related to finish were handled under warranty without fuss or delay. We highly recommend the Jeanneau experience.

Love Jeanneau, my dealer and my 389. Drives great and easy to short hand. The confidence in Jeanneau and my dealer, Norton Yachts, has made my ownership a great experience. Should I decide to move up, it will hands down be a Jeanneau purchased from Norton Yachts.
