The 1999 Jeanneau 40 Deck Salon is a celebrated 40-foot cruising sailboat that artfully blends sailing performance with liveaboard comfort. Designed by renowned naval architect Daniel Andrieu, this model was built in France to provide an “interesting combination of both performance and comfort” for cruising. Jeanneau engineered this yacht around a quick, stable hull while maximizing interior volume for an exceptional deck-saloon layout. The result is a vessel with a well-earned reputation for capable offshore handling and a bright, spacious interior – perfect for exploring the Pacific Northwest or venturing offshore in style.
Featuring a 2-cabin, 2-head layout, this Jeanneau offers private staterooms for two couples (or a family of four) and all the amenities needed for extended cruising. It has been well maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, making it a turn-key cruiser in professional condition that stands out in any marina. Currently moored in a prime slip at Shilshole Bay Marina in Seattle (with possible slip transfer to the new owner), it also offers a rare opportunity for hassle-free moorage in a highly desirable location. Below, we highlight the key features and details that make this Jeanneau 40 Deck Salon a memorable yacht.
