Jeanneau Sun 2000
Boat show demonstrator purchased by a farmer after too many pints of Guinness! Spent the next 10+ years in his barn. She’d not been in the water when I bought her in ‘21, no antifoul and sails were like new. We’ve cosied up the interior and often spend the night out in the summer. Kit list below.
We’ve enjoyed it so much that we are looking for a fixed keel.
Draws 30cm with keel retracted, and points nicely with keel down drawing app 4.5 ft. Very slippy downwind. Trailer in good condition.
Surprisingly spacious below, V comfortable for 2 adults on nice weekend.
I bought a new Mariner 5hp sail mate May ‘21 which pushes her along at 4-5 kn. We use Aspen fuel to make sure no carb issues with current petrol situation. Engine is immaculate.
Sails – main, jib in good working order. Spinnaker has never been used. All req lines and tackle.
Jib has UV protection curl and V smart mainsail cover in Green to match hull. Also Green engine cowling cover.
Mast stepping kit. Hatches all watertight.
Elec:
All round white and Tri colour at top of mast, switch in cabin.
LED strip lighting and x2 spot lights in cabin.
Leisure batt and excellent solar panel with control panel – Usually leave this in cockpit when leave boat and batt always fully charged.
VHF antenna mounted on mast but yet to install fixed VHF. We were always within handheld range despite our ambitions!
Bruce anchor, chain and warp.
Bad bits – scratch down starboard hull. Trailer and bush incident. Would polish out if you’re V keen.
Varnish on wood could do with redo again if V keen. I don’t have the table for below, have the pole. Few marks and scrapes but nothing serious, photos are from last few days after cleaned up and antifouled to sell. We don’t know year but app 2007 according to farmers memory.
She’s in good condition, especially for a boat of her age having sat in a barn for years doing nothing. All winches and blocks in good working order – rig her and go.
Any viewing or Q’s welcome.
Current Price: £9000.00
