The Jeanneau Captain is a French trailerable sailboat and powerboat that was first built in 1968.
The design was built by Jeanneau in France, starting in 1968, but it is now out of production.
The Captain was sold as a pure power boat with a wheelhouse added, as a sailboat or as an auxiliary sailboat, with an inboard motor.
The Captain is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. As a sailboat it has a fractional sloop rig. The hull has a raked stem, a slightly angled transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed stub keel, with a retractable centerboard. It displaces 1,102 lb (500 kg) and carries 265 lb (120 kg) of ballast.
The boat has a draft of 4.27 ft (1.30 m) with the centerboard extended and 1.64 ft (0.50 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water or ground transportation on a trailer.
The boat is optionally fitted with a French Renault inboard engine. The fuel tank holds 9 U.S. gallons (34 L; 7.5 imp gal).
The design has a hull speed of 5.52 kn (10.22 km/h).
