Janae and Jason, liveaboards on a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 49 DS, announce a planned Pacific Ocean crossing as their headline news for 2025.▶ 16:38 The announcement explains why they passed on a second boat: a storm-dismasted 2005 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 49 DS listed on Facebook Marketplace in Tampa, Florida, initially at $99,000 and eventually dropped to $25,000.▶ 3:37 They drove four hours from St. Augustine with friends Ryan and Brittany to inspect it.▶ 5:14 The boat had no mast, standing rigging, running rigging, or sails; a seized turbo, cracked engine mount, corroded alternator, and coolant leak through the heat exchanger; dead house batteries; stripped-out wiring; mold throughout; and delaminating interior vinyl.▶ 9:07 A visit to Don Salvage, a four-acre boat salvage yard in Florida, turned up no suitable replacement mast.▶ 10:38 A second inspection using a Dakota Lithium dual battery confirmed the windlass, bow thruster, electric winches, water pumps, and engine all started — the engine ran smoothly — but the inverter and engine kill switch failed.▶ 12:49 The total cost to make the boat seaworthy exceeded what the upgrade would be worth. Separately, upcoming content covers DIY standing rigging replacement with a post-completion professional inspection for insurance purposes, full teak-and-holly interior floor replacement, electronics upgrades including autopilot phone control and AIS on Navionics, and a full 2024 expense breakdown.
