English
The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 43 Legende is a popular family cruiser which has proved to be a capable passage maker with a comfortable 3 double cabin layout well suited to spending extended periods aboard. Simple to sail short handed with her furling sails assisted by an electric winch. Opah is a great example that has been carefully used and maintained to a good standard. A well equipped, high quality boat of this age is a rare find, especially when so sensibly priced, so don't hesitate to come and view her, you won't be disappointed!
