Seller's Description

This 1984 Jeanneau O’Day 39 /Sun Fizz 39 is a structurally sound and cosmetically beautiful sloop sailboat. Built under license from Jeanneau. In France called SUN FIZZ. Both companies at the time were owned by Bangor Punta. Later redesigned by Hunt Assoc. as the O’Day 40.

This boat has been great for sailing around the Channel Islands. The owner reports she is easy to sail, sails well, and can be sailed single-handed. She was recently updated with a 2014 Elco EP 2000 electric engine providing a cleaner and economical way to power the boat. She is structurally sound and cosmetically beautiful.

This sailboat is very spacious with a comfortable layout. There is plenty of space for a family or group of friends to sit. The 4 berths provide adequate space for up to 7 to sleep.

The galley was custom-built and includes 2 small refrigerators/freezers, an icebox, sink, stove, microwave, and storage. She has everything you need for a short or long trip or even liveaboard.

Take the opportunity to purchase this updated, well-cared-for Jeanneau and start dreaming of the adventures you’ll take and memories you’ll make!

Calculations

Hull Speed
9.3 kn
Classic: 7.76 kn

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

9.33 knots
Classic formula: 7.76 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
16.8
16-20: good performance

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
16.79
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
41.1
>40: stiffer, more powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

41.05
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
191.2
100-200: light

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
191.23
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
23.7
20-30: coastal cruiser

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
23.7
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
2.0
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
2.0
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

A similar model was sold in the US as the O’DAY 39, (O’DAY 40 after redesign.)
Keel/CB version also available: BU-4.25’; BD-6.33’.
