Overview

Design and Build

The Jeanneau Sun Fast 37 is a well-regarded performance cruiser, designed to deliver responsive sailing characteristics while maintaining the comfort and practicality expected of a modern cruising yacht. Known for its balance between speed and usability, the Sun Fast 37 has become a popular choice among sailors seeking a capable yacht for both passage-making and competitive club racing. ‘Blue Tack’ is a strong example of the model, with a thoughtful focus on ease of handling and cruising optimisation, making her particularly well suited to short-handed sailing.

Hull and Construction

The yacht features a deep fin keel with lead bulb, providing increased stability and improved upwind performance. The hull is constructed from solid hand-laid GRP, reinforced with Kevlar in high-load areas and supported by moulded longitudinal stringers for additional structural integrity.

Deep fin keel with lead bulb
Spade rudder configuration
Teak side decks
Wheel steering

This construction results in a hull that is both stiff under sail and confidence-inspiring offshore aligning with the Sun Fast range’s performance pedigree.

Rig and Sailing Configuration

‘Blue Tack’ is rigged as a fractional sloop with twin swept-back spreaders and all sail control lines led aft to the cockpit for safe and efficient handling.

A significant upgrade was completed in 2021, including:

New mast with in-mast furling system
New stainless steel standing rigging

This configuration simplifies sail handling considerably, making the yacht accessible for short-handed crews without sacrificing performance.

Engine and Propulsion

Blue Tack is powered by a Volvo Penta MD2030 diesel engine, delivering 29HP via a shaft drive system.

Recent mechanical upgrades (2025) include:

New engine mounts
New cutlass bearing
New 2-blade folding propeller

Fuel consumption is approximately 2 litres per hour, offering efficient cruising capability.

Accommodation and Layout

This example benefits from the preferred three-cabin layout, offering versatile accommodation for up to eight adults.

Forward double cabin
Two aft double cabins
Saloon with convertible double berth
Dedicated navigation station (port side)
Heads with shower (starboard)

The interior is designed for practical offshore use, with good storage and a functional galley arrangement.

Broker's Comments

Blue Tack has a sensible balance between performance and practicality. It is quick enough to remain engaging under sail yet forgiving and comfortable enough to be sailed with confidence. She has been set up with cruising very much in mind. The addition of in-mast furling makes a noticeable difference to how manageable the boat feels, particularly for smaller crews or those stepping up into this size range. The recent investment in rigging and sails is also worth noting. Overall, this is a well-rounded example of the model. She will appeal to buyers looking for a capable cruiser that still offers rewarding sailing performance.
