What this video covers

A 60-foot Jeanneau Yacht on display at Messa draws attention as the largest sailboat at the show, purchased by a relatively young couple upgrading from a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 439.▶ 0:01 Designer Philippe Rigaud — the same designer behind the Ender Pearl — gave the boat modern, elegant lines.▶ 0:19 Base price starts at 10.5 million NOK, but the boat as equipped reaches 14 million NOK.▶ 1:03 The cockpit is large and open, though cushions and a sprayhood are still on order.▶ 0:40 Winches are moved aft to the helmsman's position, and the boat carries a furling mast, making two-handed sailing practical.▶ 0:50 Below, three cabins and three heads offer volume that far exceeds a 40-footer despite similar functional count.▶ 0:48 The saloon sits raised so occupants maintain eye contact with the galley cook below.▶ 1:33 Two forward cabins are separated by a sliding bulkhead that stows flush, converting them into one large cabin with four berths.▶ 1:33 Finish quality is noted as slightly more industrial than comparable high-end builders.▶ 1:33
