The DS range of yachts is a somewhat unusual phenomenon for mass sailing. DS stands for Deck Saloon, a saloon that has been elevated upwards from other sub-deck areas to provide an excellent view from the inside. Until recently, elevated saloons were the exclusive accessory of luxury yachts such as the company's Oyster (which actually invented the concept of "raised salon") or Contest.
A characteristic feature of the DS range - the unusual appearance with the large "eye" of the porthole on the deckhouse attracts attention, singling out the yacht from the general line of her sisters. The prestigious Jeanneau range (53rd and 57th models) has evolved from the DS series, or rather the 54DS. All DS Series boats have a moderate sailing area and an excellent balance of speed, inertia and controllability, allowing even the most inexperienced sailors to easily find common ground with them. The 50DS is no exception, and any newbie quickly understands the boat's response to the helm actions.
