Owner's comments
A Legendary Sailboat: the SUN LEGENDE 41
I am proud to present my SUN LEGENDE 41, a legendary sailboat from Jeanneau, known for its seaworthiness, balance under sail, and robustness. Designed for offshore cruising and racing, this 1986 model remains a reference among large production sailboats thanks to its high-performance hull designed by architect Doug Peterson and its solid polyester laminate construction.
History and Construction of Jeanneau Shipyard
The Jeanneau shipyard was founded in 1957 by Henri Jeanneau. Over the years, the shipyard has built a solid reputation in the field of naval construction, notably thanks to its innovative and high-performance models. The SUN LEGEND 41 was produced between 1985 and 1991, a period marked by high demand for offshore cruising sailboats. This model was a great success thanks to its versatility and robustness, making it a preferred choice for sailors around the world.
Characteristics of the SUN LEGENDE 41 Model
With its 12.25 m length and 3.94 m beam, my SUN LEGEND 41 offers generous volumes, a deep and well-protected cockpit, and a spacious and functional interior. The version offered is equipped with two double cabins and a cozy saloon, making it an ideal boat for family cruising or large crews. The interior fittings, including kitchen, bathroom, and numerous storage spaces, are in good condition.
Equipment and Performance
On the sails side, my SUN LEGENDE 41 has a particularly complete and recent set: mainsail 2020, furling genoa 2020, gennaker 2022, staysail 2023 on snap shackle, asymmetric spinnaker. The set allows adapting to all conditions, whether for relaxed cruising or sporty sailing. Although the standing rigging needs to be partially replaced as a preventive measure, the entire sail plan testifies to particular attention paid to safety and performance.
Energy Autonomy and Comfort
My SUN LEGENDE 41 has also benefited from modernization of its energy autonomy. Three solar panels installed between 2022 and 2023 ensure good independence at anchor, supported by batteries from 2022 and 2023. A CRISTEC shore charger and a renovated 220 V circuit guarantee reliable power on board. The comfort equipment includes hot water, cold unit, gas stove, cockpit enclosure, lazy bag, lazy jack, electric windlass with control at the helm, and a 600-liter fresh water capacity allowing to sail with all the necessary comfort.
Electronics and Navigation
The electronics are complete and functional: Raymarine central with ST60 TRIDATA displays, Raymarine C80 color GPS plotter, Raymarine autopilot, wind vane-anemometer, NAVICO 4800 fixed VHF, AIS transmitter and receiver, portable VHF, Navionics navigation software. This arsenal makes the SUN LEGEND 41 ready for offshore navigation with modern control and safety means.
Safety and Maintenance
On the safety side, the boat is equipped with a 2021 liferaft (to be serviced), a distress beacon (battery until 2032), an IOR pole, navigation lights, and the mandatory equipment, to be updated according to the program. The 2020 mooring completes the equipment.
The propulsion is provided by a Perkins of 36.8 kW (about 50 hp), 3,108 hours on the counter, starting without difficulty and running correctly. Engine maintained by its owner assisted by a professional mechanic. In 2025, heat exchanger cleaned, silent blocks replaced, new propeller shaft as well as the stuffing box and the hydrolube ring. Stainless steel exhaust elbow, maintenance up to date.
Structurally, the 2023 expertise report confirms the absence of osmosis and a healthy hull. All valves and seacocks have been replaced in 2025.
Why is this boat interesting?
The SUN LEGENDE 41 is interesting for several reasons. First, it benefits from a berth, which is a non-negligible advantage for sailors looking to avoid mooring fees. Additionally, it is equipped with air conditioning, providing extra comfort during hot weather sailing. The boat also has a generator, ensuring increased energy autonomy. The sails are recent and in excellent condition, guaranteeing optimal performance. Finally, the engine has been carefully maintained, making it a reliable choice for long crossings.
Conclusion
In summary, my SUN LEGENDE 41 combines the recognized solidity and sailing qualities of this model with numerous recent equipment and a complete expertise file. Ideal for those looking for a character sailboat, ready to take to the sea again, this boat represents a beautiful opportunity for offshore cruising enthusiasts. For sale with a price consistent with the market and the work already done, it constitutes a reliable base to consider great nautical projects.
