Jeanneau 64 Sailing Yacht – The Sailor’s Boat!

Jeanneau 64 sailing yacht is one of those yachts guaranteed to surprise you. Latest from the company, Jeanneau 64 comes with a 64 feet 1-inch hull and a series of qualities that have been long associated with the brand. The manufacturer has cleverly married comfort, luxury and functionality to dominate in the new market.

The 64 was engineered by Philippe Briand, a French yacht designer, and Andrew Winch, a renowned British interior designer. Both the interior and exterior portray an exceptional sense of style, with a superior finish and fit.

The various accommodation arrangements available are impressive too. While a ride on this comes at a modest price, you still see a sprinkle of luxury in every aspect of the yacht. Let’s take a closer look at some of the main aspects of the Jeanneau 64.

Accommodations

As already mentioned, the accommodation arrangements available on the 64 are quite malleable with a touch of luxury. The yacht offers a luxurious full-width ensuite room and two more staterooms. All rooms have separate showers as well as ensuite heads. There is a cabin small cabin that you can convert into a workshop, a combination pantry, or a day head as you may like.

The forward end has a dedicated settee with a navigation station just opposite the dinette. There is another small cabin close to the dinette, which serves as a cloakroom, but you can use it to store any extras like snorkeling gear.

Overall, the 64 can accommodate up to 8 guests in its 4 cabins. There is a bunk room featuring two bunks with access to a shared bathroom. You access the crew cabin from the bow, and all cabins are fitted with air-conditioning.

Interior

The interior design in the Jeanneau 64 is quite exceptional, with a touch of luxury here and there. If you’ve seen the photos of the interior, you already know what am talking about.

Anyway, the interior finish is way above average, with several stylish touches, such as the wooden sinks and leather trim all through. Depending on which one you will find, the interior structure is either made of oak with a light modern style or traditional, darker teak.

The cockpit is well segregated with clear separate social and working spaces, which means the guests and crew can go about their business without interference from either. Most of the space is occupied by a power-lounging pit and two supper comfortable bench seats around two tables. The tables are completely adjustable –so you can adjust them to dining or lounging height.

You will find the working cockpit next to a range of Harken Rewind winches, Spinlock clutches, and deck organizers. There is also a small drinks fridge, wet–bar sink, and even a collapsible barbecue.

Exterior

A quick glance at the Jeanneau 64 exterior will quickly reveal the effort and attention to detail that has gone into its design. The hull and deck are fused with a balsa polyester resin. The keel root is interposed with solid laminate, while the exterior of the hull is finished using an NG gel coat.

The hardware installations on the deck are set on plywood coring, while the high-load areas are tabbed with laminate. The subfloor of the salon is a frame in high-grade aluminum. The keel features cast iron, while the rudder is wrapped in fiberglass. Overall, the structural design of this yacht’s functionality, safety, comfort, and convenience are all taken care of.

Entertainment

The Jeanneau 64 is not that big on entertainment, but if you’re in for it, you will find a Salon DVD player and TV, a Stereo system, and device hookups for this, like iPod. There is also onboard Wi-Fi to keep you connected to the outside world and keep you busy when you’re chilling out.

About the Crew

The captain, Harry Cop, is such a fun person to be around; you should meet him. He is British and extremely committed and passionate about what he does. He has a wide experience in marine and aircraft engines.

Both Helen and Harry have a way of seamlessly blending professionalism with fun, making them completely approachable and memorable to be with.

Performance

The Jeanneau 64 hits a maximum speed of 10 knots, but you will be mostly cruising between 7-9 knots. The boat is pretty responsive, with impressive acceleration and handling at turns. In reality, the boat can hit up to 13 knots at a good wind angle, but hey, we’re not here for speed, are we?

The 64 is also highly automated, with most of the functions powered. Fuel consumption averages around 10 liters per hour, and it has a 7.5 kW generator. That’s pretty modest for the EnginesVolvo D4-180-180 HP engine. Assisted Sail Trim technology is also a clever addition considering it comes at such a modest price.

The 64 sails in Greece in both winter and summer, and the preferred pickup point is either Greece or Corfu.

  1. Hello and thank you for this amazing and informative review Daniella. I had an really amazing time reading it. I never owned one of these Yacht but I was able to enjoy thanks to one of my friends who owned one. 

    The specs are amazing. Never really bothered with this kind of numbers, but this yacht is looking amazing when seen from the docks. So ellegant and fine. We were six, but it is nice to know that this Yacht can accommodate up to 8 persons.

    Never really thought of buying because at the moment it is too expensive for me. Nevermind though, I have good friends.

    • Hi Strahinja,

      That’s an excellent idea to rent this boat with other friends, just check the availability before. Most people book their boat 6 months in advance.

  2. Hi Daniella,

    The Jeanneau 64 blueprints are nice. It looks very compact & a cozy lil cabin. I think taking a trip to Greece (I have relatives of my bloodline there) would be an amazing vacation to take my husband & our 2 children.  I’m sure it would be amazing for anyone who could! Can you tell me how much would it cost for a week?

    Thanks!

    • Hi Janice,

      You are very welcome! The crew members take care well of their guests, and I am sure Hellen prepare all the meals. If you love to cook, you may want to give her hand with the cooking:) It varies, food is mainly prepared according to the charterer requirements. So it would be difficult to provide a sample of the dinners. While the procedure of the booking, you’ll receive a sheet with a list of food and ingredient allowing you to choose your favorite dishes.
      I hope it helped:) Let me know if you need more info. I’ll be more than happy to assist!

  4. I have always dreamed of going on a sailing holiday, and the Jeanneau 64 really does sound as though it would offer a great sailing experience. And sailing around the Greek islands has always been at the top of my wish list.  Just looking at the photos makes me long to be on board!

    I agree with you, the accommodation does look extremely comfortable, with a touch of luxury. And the staff sound really ideal.

    I love all kinds of watersports, and some of these are obviously possible on this cruise. Please could you explain what is meant by “Rendezvous Diving”?

    Thank you so much for this information which I hope to be able to use in the future.

    Chrissie 🙂
