Designed by Philippe Briand and Jean-Marc Piaton, the new Sun Odyssey 490 successfully combines contemporary style and harmony,

all while respecting the heritage of her 27 years.
This 49-feet sailboat has revolutionized cruising: she is the only sailboat in their category to feature movement about the deck without obstacle. For example, the sidedecks are inclined, sloping down to the cockpit floor, meaning that there is no need to step over the coaming!
Life on board has never been so simple and comfortable.

With an overall length of 47'4" and a spacious 3-cabin / 2-heads layout, SY MAKAI has tons of room for you and your guests.

No need to make the precarious climb over the cockpit coaming or step on the cockpit cushions.

The cockpit seat backs on each side fold flat extending over the side decks to create huge sunbathing pads

Creates a very broad "sweet spot" when sailing up wind causing effort-less steering and no tendency to round up in gusts.
