The Sun Charm 39 is a French sailboat that was designed by Jacques Fauroux as a cruiser and first built in 1988. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Contents

The Sun Charm's basic hull design was developed into the Sun Fast 39 racer in 1989 and the cruising Sun Odyssey 39 in 1990. [1] [2] [7] [8] [9] [10]

Production

The design was built by Jeanneau in France, starting in 1988, but it is now out of production. [1] [2] [6] [11] [12]

Design

The Sun Charm 39 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig. The hull has a raked stem, a reverse transom with steps to a swimming platform, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel or optional shoal draft keel. It displaces 14,330 lb (6,500 kg) and carries 5,401 lb (2,450 kg) of ballast. [1] [2]

The boat has a draft of 6.42 ft (1.96 m) with the standard keel and 4.67 ft (1.42 m) with the optional shoal draft keel. [1] [2]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 50 hp (37 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 37 U.S. gallons (140 L; 31 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 95 U.S. gallons (360 L; 79 imp gal). [1] [2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two aft cabins, each with a double berth. The main cabin has a "U" shaped settee around a rectangular table on the port side. The galley is located on the starboard side amidships. The galley is equipped with a stove, an ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is aft of the galley, on the starboard side. There are two heads, one forward of each aft cabin. [1] [2]

For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker. [1] [2]

The design has a hull speed of 7.63 kn (14.13 km/h). [2]
