The Sun Fizz was one of the the first boats built by Jeanneau for open sea and long passages. The deck is of a sandwich balsa and it is glued, bolted and on top of that stratified to the hull, making a simple and strong construction. The separate keel and rudder and the very large beam which extends up to the stern translates into a large interior volume.

Broker's Comments

What a bargain - Priced to sell, this is a lot of boat for the money! She is a large and strong cruising yacht with lots of room and many berths with which to accommodate a decent sized crew.

Built between 1980 and 1984 the Sun Fizz production run from Jeanneau consisted of some 400 hulls. Designed for offshore passages and coastal cruising she has lots of space both above and below decks which is comparable to the best of today's modern cruisers.
