Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 35 propeller questions
What size propeller does a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 35 take?
Documented Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 35 installations most commonly run an Autoprop H5 around 416 mm, matched to the Volvo Penta MD2030 on a shaft drive. Exact size depends on your engine, gearbox ratio and aperture — every recommendation is verified by an engineer before supply.
How much fuel would a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 35 save with an Autoprop?
Typical savings over a fixed-pitch propeller are up to 20% at cruise (documented band 15–30%, honestly less if you already run a folding or feathering prop). Put your engine hours and diesel price into the fuel calculator for your own numbers — then the Builder for a verified recommendation.
My Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 35 has a different engine than shown — does the data still help?
Yes. Repowers are common and the database usually holds several engine variants per model. The Builder starts from your actual engine and gearbox; the model records confirm diameters and clearances that are known to work on this hull.
