The all-new Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 455 was launched at Boot Düsseldorf in January to an exceptional reception, with eight orders placed at the show and 21 yachts sold across the range, the strongest result of any brand in attendance.

Designed by the renowned Lombard office, this is the largest Sun Odyssey they have drawn for Jeanneau and it shows. The 455 blends elegance with distinctive detail, from the refined twin-helm pods with electronic engine controls to a beautifully resolved cockpit and a sophisticated, highly functional interior.

The first Australian example arrives in July and will compete at Airlie Race Week before going on display at the Pittwater Sail Expo from 15 to 18 October.
