The 49 DS is part of a family of Sun Odyssey yachts built by Jeanneau in France. Production began in 2004, but it is now completed.[1][2][5][6][7]

Design

The Sun Odyssey 49 DS's hull is built predominantly of fiberglass. A masthead sloop with a nearly-plumb stem, it features a reverse transom, a skeg-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel, and a fixed fin keel, with a weighted bulb. It displaces 28,000 lb (12,701 kg) and carries 9,039 lb (4,100 kg) of iron ballast.[1][2]

The boat has a draft of 7.05 ft (2.15 m) with the standard keel and 5.41 ft (1.65 m) with the optional shoal draft keel.[1][2]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 4JH3TE diesel engine of 75 hp (56 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 63 U.S. gallons (240 L; 52 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 185 U.S. gallons (700 L; 154 imp gal).[1][2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a two double berths in dual bow cabins and an aft cabin with a central double berth. The galley is located on the starboard side at the companionway ladder. The galley is L-shaped and is equipped with a two-burner stove and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. There are three heads, one just aft of each of the bow cabins and one on the port side in the aft cabin.[1][2][5]

The design has a hull speed of 8.72 kn (16.15 km/h).[2]
