ONE DESIGN, DUAL PURPOSE
The Grand Soleil 44 was a great challenge for Cantiere del Pardo. Designed by Matteo Polli, a designer renowned for his high-performance hull lines, the 44-footer completes the Performance range by showing a well-balanced relationship between size and performance. During navigation maneuvers, the owner and guests can take advantage of all the necessary space, for the comfort of the interiors and for the livability of the deck.
FROM PERFORMANCE TO RACE
The Grand Soleil 44 is available in two models. The first, the Performance model, has a sail plan and deck setup that allows you to sail easily and simply. The second, the Race version, has a competitive character and identity. Both versions ooze the timeless style and elegance that are the hallmarks of the entire Grand Soleil range.
SIMPLE SAILING AND COMFORT: PERFORMANCE LAYOUT
The performance layout is designed for those looking for performance and comfort, with attention to detail that allows elegance and improved navigation.
COMPETE AT THE BEST:
RACE LAYOUT
The Grand Soleil 44 has a racing soul that it doesn’t want to hide. The design goal was clear from the start: to create the right balance between design and performance even for less experienced owners.
AIRY, LIVEABLE, BEAUTIFUL INTERIORS
The Grand Soleil 44 is the proof that performance doesn’t need to sacrifice comfort at all, thanks to large and beautiful interior spaces, amplified by the brightness that filters through the windows of the hull and the deck. Three cabins and two bathrooms, both with separate shower cubicles, complete the relaxation area. The L-shaped kitchen and dinette with a comfortable U-shaped sofa and table are positioned centrally, offering hospitality to up to eight people. Another three-seater sofa with a chart table adds even more comfort and flexibility for guests onboard.
ANOTHER STEP INTO THE COMFORT OF A LUXURY ESCAPE
The volume of the hull has been designed to offer maximum comfort. The interior spaces of the Grand Soleil 44 have a sense of freedom and practicality often found in larger yachts, with a layout that guarantees privacy even with many guests on board.
WORLD PREMIERE SPECS
The Grand Soleil 44 is available in two versions: GS 44 Performance and GS 44 Race. Two different layouts designed to be enjoyed in cruise mode as well as during racing.
