Grand Soleil 40 B&C
Performance-Cruiser built in 2007Fast, elegant performance cruiser built by Cantiere del Pardo in Italy. The Grand Soleil 40 by Botin & Carkeek Yachtdesign is characterised by her modern, elegant and no-frills design. Tidy, uncluttered decks, a vertical bow and the sleek, angular coachhouse make the yacht an eye-catcher both under sail and in the marina. A high 3 spreader mast, deep and effective appendixes and the modern hull design provide superior performance and fun on the water. The Grand Soleil 40 is not only fast, she is also an easy and safe sailing yacht. Stiff and torsion-free construction with strongback in galvanized steel to accommodate the loads of keel, mast and shrouds.
Well equipped owner's yacht. 3 cabin layout with two heads compartments and mahogany interior. Grand Soleil 40 with IRC Racing lead keel (draft: approx. 2.40 m), IRC Racing rig and engine upgrade to VOLVO PENTA D2-40. The interior is in very good condition. Extensive and exclusive deck fittings with HARKEN racing deck gear (German mainsheet system with mainsheet winches, line-adjustable, ball-bearing genoa sheeting points, inhaulers for genoa sheets and all blocks in HARKEN Black Magic).
