The Jeanneau DB/37 embodies a seamless blend of luxury, livability, and performance, encapsulating an intimate moment with the sea. This vessel, a smaller sibling to the DB/43, offers unparalleled comfort and style.
Design and Features
The DB/37 is designed by Camillo Garroni, drawing inspiration from modern automotive aesthetics. The boat's sleek, sporty lines and thoughtful design maximize onboard comfort and livability. The swimming platform measures 3.45 meters in width and 1.4 meters in depth, with the option to house up to two 450 horsepower engines in the outboard version. This configuration increases storage capacity in the stern locker, which is currently used as an engine room.
The deck layout is incredibly versatile, featuring a private square on the sea with a maximum beam of 3.56 meters, expandable to 4.9 meters. The cockpit seating can be adjusted into four different configurations, accommodating up to six diners or optimizing the sunbathing area. The well-equipped galley module includes an electric hot plate, stove, sink, power outlet, storage cabinet, and a 49-liter fridge.
Below deck, the design focuses on maximizing livability without sacrificing privacy. The full-beam owner's cabin and the guest cabin are both spacious and well-appointed. The owner's cabin includes a separate shower and stool, while the guest cabin can be configured with twin singles or a spacious double berth.
Performance
Powered by two Volvo Penta D4 engines, each with 320 horsepower, the DB/37 delivers a total of 640 horsepower. During testing in the French Riviera, the boat demonstrated impressive performance. At 12.8 knots, it consumes 38.5 liters per hour. Increasing to 20 knots, consumption rises to 69 liters per hour, and at 25 knots, it consumes 85 liters per hour. The boat's top speed reached 33.2 knots, consuming 125 liters per hour.
