Jeanneau SO 37

[Greg2]

If its anything like my similar age 45.2 the water tanks are stainless steel and fitted under the forecabin bunks. Mine had pinhole leaks from welded seems and I had them re-welded. If the water in the bilge is fresh take a look at the tanks.

Thanks. It didn’t register what the tanks were made of so will bear it in mind if we make an offer.

>Any experience / thoughts on the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 37 of circa 2000 vintage? From what I have managed to find online build quality of that era was okay, good accommodation but sailing ability, particularly upwind, not particularly inspiring.


Jane and I have chartered one if those many times and we found them better upwind than Beneteaus because they had a deeper keel. They do have a good build quality.

I think the SO37 has moulded plastic tanks.
