Kai Quest is an outstanding example of a beautiful and meticulously maintained Jeanneau 43 Sun Odyssey with the 3 cabin/2 head layout
The Jeanneau 43 SO is known for quality, excellence and comfort. The Sun Odyssey 43 hull is hand-laid fiberglass with Kevlar rovings in the bow sections for added strength. Vinylester resin is used in the first two laminates for osmosis protection. Jeanneau does not use molded hull liners in any of its boats larger than 34 feet. Floors and longitudinal stringers are made from laminated plywood and bonded to the hull creating a strong structural grid. The results are a combination of classic lines, structural integrity and outstanding comfort for your sailing adventures.

Cons
Older Systems May Need Upgrades: Being a 2001 model, some onboard systems like electronics, plumbing, or electrical components may require updating or maintenance to meet current standards.

Limited Tank Capacities: Water and fuel tank sizes are adequate for coastal cruising but might be restrictive for long offshore passages without careful planning.
