Manufacturer Provided Description

The exciting Grand Soleil 45 is achieving record sales in the UK and elsewhere. Offering an unrivalled combination of sparkling sailing performance, beautiful lines and top build condition, there is no other cruiser racer in its class which can give the short-handed cruiser or top level racing enthusiast so much. The development uses a galvanised steel frame to take the loads of the keel, mast base and rigging - creating a very stiff and low centre of gravity feel. The IRC ratings are very competitive - the racing version is 1.098 and the performance cruising version is 1.068. The first nodesk success has been victory at Spi Ouest - doubtless with many more to follow.
