Boat equipment
Makaira, in the outdoor areas, has a wooden deck with two sunbeds, while in the aft sitting room (cockpit) it has a fixed bimini for protection from the sun.
The interior is equipped with two refrigerators, a gas stove with two burners and an oven, smart TV, usb chargers, cd player. Hot water, towels, sheets (1 set per week) and blankets are provided.
Her kitchen has all the essentials, plates, glasses, pots, etc. coffee machines for French and espresso.
Makaira is also fitted with a new 2020 Yanmar engine and new Quantum sails, while her interior was redone in 2022.
Solar panels, batteries as well as the large water tanks, give great autonomy in cases where a marina is not preferred for the overnight stay.
Finally the dinghy, Vissarionas, which follows Makaira everywhere, is a Mostro 3.20 inflatable with a hard hull and a 9hp outboard. It is a very stable and comfortable boat.

From a ‘‘Cruising World’’ review:
"the Sun Kiss is an impressive example of Jeanneau’s consistent ability to incorporate state of the art design and performance with French craftsmanship in the production of quality sailing yachts. Elegance is evident in her graceful lines, luxurious handcrafted teak interior and thoughtfully planned cruiser layout. Her debut at the Paris Boat Show proved her an instant sensation with the yachting world followed by the recently completed 'Transat en Double' (doublehanded transatlantic race) in which she captured honors that confirms she's a true competitor."
