Kaimana is Ocean Ready and Adventure Proof!

Her current owners purchased her directly from the Jeanneau Yacht Division in France. She was commissioned by SAS in Les Sables d’Olonne in 2018 and equipped from the start for extended offshore cruising. Since then, she has sailed extensively through Europe, the Mediterranean, and across the Atlantic, proving herself to be a capable, comfortable, and dependable bluewater yacht.

Designed by Philippe Briand and Andrew Winch, the Jeanneau Yachts 51 combines performance with refined craftsmanship and represents the builder’s premium line that sits above the Sun Odyssey range. While the Sun Odyssey models are designed primarily for coastal and short offshore cruising, the Jeanneau Yachts series is built to a higher specification, using upgraded materials, enhanced joinery, and superior systems throughout. They feature more robust hull structures, greater insulation, refined interiors, and higher-end equipment chosen for comfort during long passages or extended liveaboard use. The Jeanneau Yachts range is also commissioned differently, with closer oversight from the shipyard’s yacht division team in Cholet, France, and more customization options than the production lines.

Kaimana’s interior reflects the quality and finish expected from this division. Finished in light oak with a hand-rubbed open pore varnish and a dark Milano sole, she has a bright and welcoming atmosphere with ample storage. The leather upholstery, indirect lighting, and detailed joinery showcase the elevated standard of the Jeanneau Yacht line.

Her three-cabin layout offers flexibility for both owners and guests. The forward owner’s cabin includes an en suite head, an upgraded mattress, and ventilation for comfort. The port-side VIP cabin also has an en suite head, while the starboard quarter berth provides additional double accommodation. The salon table converts to a double berth, allowing sleeping for up to eight when required.

The galley is designed for long-term cruising and easy meal preparation underway. Onboard systems and conveniences support extended passages and life aboard, and the heating system ensures comfort in cooler conditions.

Every aspect of Kaimana reflects careful ownership and thoughtful preparation for serious cruising. Her systems are well maintained, her interior remains clean and inviting, and her sailing history demonstrates proven capability across a wide range of conditions.

Kaimana represents an excellent opportunity to step into a well prepared and carefully maintained Jeanneau Yachts 51. She offers the comfort, craftsmanship, and offshore reliability that distinguish the Jeanneau Yachts series from the production lines, making her a strong choice for sailors seeking a ready, capable, and beautifully finished yacht for bluewater or liveaboard cruising.

Kaimana is currently cruising the eastern Caribbean and is available for viewings. New owners may take possession from February 2026.
