Thanks David, hope all is well with you!

@@paulfenn940 Things are great Paul. You looked very relaxed in the video. I'm jealous of all the time you are getting to spend on Jeanneau 60 Yachts!

Ahoy Paul Great video in which you and Catherine have “starred”! Just a shout out to let you know Natty Bloh, our 2007 42iP, is going strong sailing the East Coast from Maine to Mid Atlantic. Will be sailing up from Norfolk to the boat show in Annapolis. Hope to see you there. Best to your family. Fair Winds Tim

Thanks Tim! Great to hear from you and great to know you and Natty Bloh are hitting the high seas in style. Looking forward to seeing you at the Naptown show. See you there

This one with the owners cabin in the back is much better the two cabin version becomes tight for such a large boat

Catherine the "Talking" head of Jeanneau !!

Was this model at last years Annapolis show? I might be confusing it was a large Beneteau. I love that walk around deck. Every design choice is a trade off. For example, when you remove the upper cabinets to increase the light and open feeling of the interior, you lose storage space.

[@paulfenn940]

Hello, Paul Fenn here. Yes the JY 60 has been at the Annapolis show for the past 2 years. In fact the same boat was used both years. This year we have a new 2024 model which has a few changes, so well worth taking another look! With regards to your comment about storage, why it is true some storage is lost up high, a lot of storage has been gained down low. Having sailed on the 60 quite a lot, I can tell you the storage on the boat is very good. Hope to see you in Annapolis next month!

Can you let me know the head height below deck? I have a tall 6:4 partner and we love the DS due to its head height but this yacht could be perfect??

[@paulfenn940]

I can help answer this! Main salon: 6’7”. Galley: 7’. Forward cabin: 6’7". Forward head: 6’5” Master aft: 6’7" ( 6’2” at lowest point to allow for bridge deck overhead). Master head : 6’7". The boat has tremendous space below!

Thank you!!

[@paulfenn940]

She is nice!

When will you make a similar video re: the Jeanneau 65?

[@dougfitch3649]

How about a really big chart table? Its critical to be able to navigate readily old style in case GPS etc fails. A large boat like this may be crossing oceans.

[@JeanneauAmerica]

It's a reasonable point, thank you! While the chart table is a fairly good size, it's not big enough to fold out an entire chart on. What others have done when making a long passage is to lay out the paper chart on the salon table with updated positions. This way all crew members can easily see where they are. Thanks again for your comment, we appreciate it.

When is someone going to take one of these monohulls and ditch the masts, sails, sheets and winches and fit a full length solar roof with athwartship extensions. You could fit 40, 400 watt panels over a 16m x 5m area and then have another 16 panels as athwartship extensions. That would give you 56 panels and a 22Kw array. In the summer Med that might generate 125KwHrs per day of power. A 60 footer of about 25 ton would use about 2.5Kw to propel at 4kts. You would have continuous 4-5kt propulsion and plenty power left for air con, water makers, lighting, cookers, fridges and all the luxuries of life without struggling with sails in light winds or leaning over at 30 degrees. You would be a "solar" not a "sailor".

Beautiful boat! Very bad grill master, everything is burnt.

[@JeanneauAmerica]

You're right! We had to send him back to dishwashing duty😆
