Daniel Andrieu's design for Jeanneau delivers a compelling blend of performance and versatility in this compact 24-footer, first launched in 1994. The lifting keel configuration makes this boat particularly appealing for sailors who need shallow-water capability without sacrificing sailing performance, allowing access to protected anchorages and launching ramps while maintaining the ballast efficiency needed for spirited sailing. With a fractional sloop rig and sail area of 247 square feet driving 2,530 pounds of displacement, the One Design 24 offers lively performance characteristics well-suited to day sailing, coastal cruising, and club racing. The SA/Displacement ratio of 21.34 indicates a responsive boat that will move well in light to moderate conditions, while the 726-pound ballast provides adequate stability for confident sailing. The fiberglass construction reflects Jeanneau's production boat expertise, delivering durability and reasonable maintenance requirements. At nearly 24 feet overall with an 8.17-foot beam, there's sufficient space for weekend cruising or extended day trips with a small crew. The comfort ratio of 10.98 suggests this design prioritizes performance over heavy-weather comfort, making it ideal for coastal waters rather than offshore passages. The capsize screening value of 2.4 indicates good stability characteristics for its intended use.
