Grand Soleil 46′
Introduction
Designed by Botin and Carkeek, the Grand Soleil 46 is a fast cruiser which has achieved a perfect balance between performance, manageability and timeless design. Fast, safe, comfortable and easy to helm and sail, even with a small crew, this boat is also competitive on the race-track and has been optimised for IRC.
The GS46 is the first Grand Soleil to have been built using the infusion method which is employed in order to maximise the stiffness of the boat whilst keeping the weight down. The T-shaped bulb keel has been developed from experience gained in the Americas Cup and in the TP52 fleets.
The standard boat features three cabins and two heads but every Grand Soleil 46 is special because it is unique and each owner can personalise their boat, choosing the solutions they prefer below decks. She is fitted with a Volvo D” 55hp engine with S drive.
