BRAND NEW Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 455 - Now available to view in Chichester. We are delighted to showcase this Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 455, the inaugural unit of this thrilling new model to reach the UK. Serving as the latest evolution of the remarkably successful Sun Odyssey line, the 455 offers an ideal blend of performance sailing, modern aesthetics, and superb cruising luxury, all within a highly manageable 45-foot layout.

Propelled by a Yanmar 4JH80 (80hp) engine and equipped with a 1.75m shallow-draft cast iron keel, this vessel expands your cruising horizons while preserving impressive stability and sailing prowess. Featuring substantial tankage—580 litres of water with an additional tank and 200 litres of fuel—she is perfectly prepared for long-distance passages. The high-aspect rig, combined with Harken winches and deck gear, ensures efficient sail control, while the in-mast furling mainsail, roller furling genoa, and German sheeting system led to the helm make short-handed sailing an effortless experience. The extensive Downwind Pack, which includes rigging for a Code 0 or asymmetric spinnaker and a dedicated bowsprit, ensures this yacht performs just as capably off the wind as she does on the wind.

Her cockpit is crafted for both active sailing and leisurely relaxation, highlighted by twin composite wheels, wooden cockpit tables, convertible sunbeds, a high-transparency sprayhood with integrated LED lighting, and an electric transom that provides easy water access. Full mooring and anchoring kits finish off this completely turn-key package.

Down below, the 3-cabin, 2-head configuration is styled in grey cedar paired with dark oak laminate flooring, resulting in a luminous, contemporary, and welcoming space. Jeanneau’s trademark one-level interior design, which eliminates door sills, combined with leather-wrapped handrails and oversized rectangular berths, elevates both safety and comfort while underway. The saloon boasts a luxury electric telescopic table, premium upholstery, ambient LED lighting, and ample storage throughout. The U-shaped galley is superbly equipped with Corian countertops, twin stainless steel sinks, a 3-burner stove with an oven, a spacious 190-litre fridge, and clever storage options, making it perfect for extended voyages or hosting guests.

The forward owner’s cabin features a genuine island berth, plentiful storage, superb natural light and airflow, plus private access to a roomy ensuite with a separate shower and a quiet-flush electric freshwater toilet. Two additional roomy aft cabins provide matching levels of volume, light, and privacy, serviced by a secondary well-equipped heads.

The yacht comes fully outfitted with the Raymarine Offshore Electronics Pack, featuring electric winches, twin Axiom+ 9” multifunction displays, an autopilot with a gyrocompass, wind instruments, VHF radio, and Navionics cartography, guaranteeing reliable navigation for all your cruising adventures. This Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 455 provides a unique chance to acquire the very first unit of this highly awaited model, delivering innovative design, validated sailing performance, and unmatched comfort. She is a magnificent option for sailors desiring a modern cruiser that is ready to sail today. If you prefer not to wait until June to view the all-new SO455 in the UK, get in touch with us to schedule a personal tour of the Jeanneau factory and witness our next generation of cruising yacht for yourself.
