Jeanneau Sun Kiss 45

SUN KISS 45 

Recent expert report (05/2025) available.

Monolithic polyester boat, built by Jeanneau, type Sun Kiss 45 in 1986.
The SUN KISS is a yacht renowned for its comfort and performance. It is spacious and offers plenty of functional storage space.
Very well equipped, she works just as well upwind with the genoa or staysail as she does downwind with her Code D or SPI. The extended boom increases the mainsail area. Thanks to its 75 hp turbo engine, it's easy to handle, even without a bow thruster, and tack quickly.
Equipped for optimum on-board comfort (solar panels, generator, watermaker, reversible air conditioning, fans, 220v network, etc.), it will enable you to travel pleasantly over long distances and make the most of your anchorages.
