Design

edit

The Sun Odyssey 519 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, with a deck-stepped mast, two sets of swept spreaders and aluminum spars with 1X19 stainless steel wire rigging. The hull has a raked stem, a reverse transom with a drop-down tailgate swimming platform, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by dual wheels and a fixed L-shaped fin keel with a weighted bulb or optional shoal-draft keel. The fin keel model displaces 30,644 lb (13,900 kg) empty and carries 9,480 lb (4,300 kg) of cast iron ballast, while the shoal draft version displaces 31,636 lb (14,350 kg) empty and carries 10,472 lb (4,750 kg) of cast iron ballast.[1][2][3][4]

The boat has a draft of 7.42 ft (2.26 m) with the standard keel and 5.67 ft (1.73 m) with the optional shoal draft keel.[1][2][3][4]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 80 hp (60 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 63 U.S. gallons (240 L; 52 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 163 U.S. gallons (620 L; 136 imp gal).[1][2][3][4]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six to ten people in three to five cabins. The three cabin interior has a double island berth in the bow cabin, a U-shaped settee and a straight double seat in the main cabin and two aft cabins, each with a double berth. The bow cabin may be divided into two smaller cabins, each with a "V"-berth. Also a small aft crew cabin with two bunk beds may be added aft on the starboard side. The galley is located on the starboard side, amidships. The galley is of a straight configuration and is equipped with a four-burner stove, a refrigerator, freezer and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the port side. There are two heads, one in the bow cabin on the port side and one on the port side, aft. Up to four heads may be fitted in the four cabin interior, two forward and two aft. The cabin maximum headroom is 68 in (173 cm).[1][2][3][4]

For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a code 0 sail of 1,044 sq ft (97.0 m2). The boat has a hull speed of 9.06 kn (16.78 km/h).[2][3][4]

The boat is supported by an active class club, the Jeanneau Owners Network.[12][13]
