GRAND SOLEIL 46.3 Sailing
in Croatia
 Grand
Soleil 46.3 The
objective was to surpass the incredible success of the Grand Soleil 45', in
terms of units produced and also in terms of quality. We have worked to achieve
the optimum from a new hull area distributing the volume to the extremities thus
increasing the prismatic coefficients. This solution has increased the waterline
length significantly, hence the maximum speed of the boat, while giving great
cruising interior capacity.
The result of this design research is a modern sailing yacht of the latest
generation born to be a new reference, in terms of comfort and boat speed.
 
The grace of her sheer line and well-matched proportions between the deck and
hull
shape.
- A balanced hull shape when heeled, to let her sail in any sea conditions with
reduced crew and stay under full control at all times. High volume, which
gives her a huge owner's cabin forward in the bow and two big crew cabins aft. -
Generous sail plan with low wetted surface and very efficient keel/rudder
profiles for high speed and good manoeuvrability.
High stability for safety and power under sail, which is far over the
newest EC rules for Category A.
