Jeanneau Sun 2000

Jeanneau Sun 2000 is a 21 ′ 9 ″ / 6.6 m monohull sailboat designed by Olivier Petit/Jeanneau and built by Jeanneau starting in 2000.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

The models of the JEANNEAU SUN range

Sun 2000 by Jeanneau, we haven't finished regretting it!

The Jeanneau Sun 2000 is a small sailboat whose greatest quality remains its simplicity. Simple to transport, to launch, to sail and to maintain. A sure value in second hand.

• from 6,000 euros for the first Sun 2000 built before 2004.
• 1,470 copies from 2000 to 2010

Born as its name indicates in the year 2000 - but also to signal the 20 feet length - this sailboat was an immediate success thanks to a tight selling price and a specification in line with the demand for small cruisers . An integral dinghy whose daggerboard retracts entirely into the hull, which facilitates beaching, but above all, the exit of water on a trailer: no need for a crane.

More of a day boat than a cruiser, it is an easy, fun and modern boat. Its sober lines and without excess do not go out of fashion at all. It is a pity that this very successful model disappeared so early from the catalog euros the fault of the shipyard , to opportunities, they explain. It is probably also difficult for a large shipyard to find profitability in such small boats.

Stable in shape, the Sun 2000 shows good performance at all points of sail and remains controllable as a family, including under asymmetric spinnaker . The deck plan is very much in favor of the cockpit, which is 2.50 m long, but the original fittings remain basic. The cabin is the same: little storage space, but the four berths will nevertheless allow you to bivouac for one or two nights.

The diagnosis of Bateaux.com

It's a pity that the dark green gelcoat of the first models loses its shine quickly. Like the First 210, it is the lighter hulls that age best (when they are not green, they are cream for the Sun 2000).

Structure and peripherals are reliable. Standardization obliges, the shovel and the rudder cage were borrowed from its cousin, the First 211 . But the centerboard axis, under sampled, is to be watched. The Sun 2000 can be set in 30 cm of water, well protected by its cast iron cover, but the poor surface condition of the ballast and the quality of the joint with the hull can significantly affect performance.

" In the tradition of small sailboats, the Sun 2000 combines all the strong points of pleasure sailing: minimal space requirements, easy transport and launching, elegant, stable and fast hull, large comfortable cockpit, interior full of ideas. "

Presentation of the Sun 2000 by Jeanneau in 2000.

• Easy to carry and transport
• Very successful design
• Low price for a recent sailboat

Disadvantages

• Minimalist fittings
• Sail plan (too) wise
• Little storage space

But what is missing?

It is perfect for family sailing. But the performance lovers will have to take care of the fittings, the sails and the glide of the hull.

The equivalent today?

The Blue Djinn is older, but remains an integral dinghy . The Maxus 22, evolution of the 21, has the same program as the Sun 2000.

Broker Remarks

The trailer sailor market is very competitive, Jeanneau launched the Jeanneau Sun 2000 and saw fantastic numbers sold by the factory. This Jeanneau Sun 2000 is the upgraded Comfort version with a few added extras from the standard version. The current owners have owned her for the last 4 years and have loved every minute of it, they are now looking to upgrade to something larger hence the genuine reason for the sale. The most recent upgrades to this pocket sailor have been the the addition of a Simrad tiller pilot, Raymarine i40 log/speed/temperature, Plastimo Contest 101 Compass & a number of safety equipment items. The condition of this Jeanneau Sun 2000 is very good, she comes complete with  a single axle road legal trailer, this is great to keep the costs of storing the boat during winter months should you have space to do so. Owners Remarks: Boue Dessous was, for us, a step up from small sailing dinghies and, in superb condition, when we bought her in April 2013. She has been an excellent introduction to larger boat sailing. In our ownership, having trailed her from Chichester, we have sailed extensively from her mooring in the Helford River venturing as far as the Lizard and to Fowey, Plymouth Sound as well as Carrick Roads. She is laid up ashore, at Gweek Quay Boatyard each winter, where several enhancements have been undertaken to enable her to be sailed safely in these waters. We are now selling her, as we are seeking a larger boat to enable us to venture further afield and live afloat for longer.

GALVESTON, Texas (AP) — Early estimates indicate up to 2,000 gallons of oil may have spilled into surrounding waters when a barge carrying fuel broke free from a tugboat and slammed into a bridge near Galveston, Texas, the U.S. Coast Guard said Thursday.

The barge crashed into a pillar supporting the Pelican Island Causeway span on Wednesday. The impact caused the bridge to partially collapse and cut off the only road connecting Galveston to Pelican Island, the Coast Guard said.

Video shows splotches of oil had spilled from the barge into Galveston Bay. Jeff Davis of the Texas General Land Office said during a news conference Thursday that early cleanup efforts have not identified any impacted wildlife.

The barge has the capacity to hold 30,000 barrels, but was holding 23,000 barrels — approximately 966,000 gallons — when it struck the bridge, Rick Freed, the vice president of barge operator Martin Marine, said at the news conference. Freed said the only tank that was compromised in the crash was holding approximately 160,000 gallons, which is the “complete risk.”

“We’re pretty confident there was much less oil introduced to the water than we initially estimated,” Coast Guard Capt. Keith Donohue said.

“We’ve recovered over 605 gallons of oily water mixture from the environment, as well as an additional 5,640 gallons of oil product from the top of the barge that did not go into the water,” Donohue said.

The Coast Guard said earlier that it had deployed a boom, or barrier, to contain the spill, which forced the closure of about 6.5 miles (10.5 kilometers) of the waterway.

A tugboat lost control of the 321-foot barge “due to a break in the coupling” that had connected the two vessels, the Coast Guard said.

“Weather was not a factor, at all, during the coupling issue,” Freed said. When pressed for more details on how the two vessels became disconnected, he said: “It’s under investigation right now, and I really can’t disclose anything further until the investigation is through.”

On Thursday, the barge remained beside the bridge, weighed in place by debris including rail lines that fell onto it after the crash.

The bridge, which provides the only road access between Galveston and Pelican Island, remained closed to incoming traffic, but vehicles leaving Pelican Island and pedestrians in both directions were able to cross.

Texas A&M University at Galveston, which has a campus on Pelican Island, urged staff and faculty to leave and said it was closing the campus, although essential personnel would remain.

“Given the rapidly changing conditions and uncertainty regarding the outage of the Pelican Island Bridge, the Galveston Campus administration will be relocating all Texas A&M Pelican Island residents,” through at least Sunday, it said in a statement late Wednesday.

Fewer than 200 people related to the school were on the island when the barge hit the bridge. Spokesperson Shantelle Patterson-Swanson said the university would provide transportation and cover the housing costs of those who choose to leave, but underlined that the school has not issued a mandatory evacuation.

Aside from the environmental impact of the oil spill, the region is unlikely to see large economic disruption as a result of the accident, said Maria Burns, a maritime transportation expert at the University of Houston.

The affected area is miles from the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, which sees frequent barge traffic, and the Houston Ship Channel, a large shipping channel for ocean-going vessels.

The accident came weeks after a cargo ship crashed into a support column of the Francis Key Bridge in Baltimore on March 26, killing six construction workers.

Gonzalez reported from McAllen, Texas.

This story corrects the spelling of the name of a University of Houston’s maritime transportation expert. Her name is Maria Burns, not Marcia.
