the new Grand soleil PLUS 65 PERFORMANCE
Sporty elegance, responsive performance, and a bespoke soul: the Grand Soleil Plus 65 Performance redefines sailing within the Plus range. Designed to deliver speed and agility without compromising on comfort, it combines refined design, artisanal craftsmanship, and advanced technologies in a fully Made in Italy project.
Born as the sportier version of the successful 65 Long Cruise, this model combines sleek lines, a functional deck layout, and an optimized sail plan to ensure speed, responsiveness, and the joy of sailing in all conditions. The Grand Soleil 65 Performance is the result of an outstanding collaboration between Matteo Polli, Nauta Design, Marco Lostuzzi, and the Cantiere del Pardo team, who conceived the project and oversaw its development.
GREEN WAVES
Grand Soleil Plus 65 Performance, like any other yacht by Cantiere del Pardo, is designed to respect the marine environment in which it sails. The materials and construction methods implied have low environmental impact and a high degree of recyclability: the teak, for example, is sourced from a sustainable supply chain, the glass is laminated for better insulation, the composite lamination uses linen and eco resins, the paints are water-based and solar panels provide renewable green energy.
The deck design
The deck design of the Grand Soleil Plus 65 Performance reflects the sporty elegance that defines the entire range. The sleek lines of the deckhouse give the yacht a streamlined and contemporary profile, while the layout is carefully conceived to offer maximum usability both under sail and at anchor. Maneuvers are designed for an active and intuitive sailing experience, without compromising on comfort. Every element—from the clear walkways to the dedicated lounging areas—is crafted to combine style, functionality, and the pure pleasure of life in the open air.
INTERIOR DESIGN
The interiors of the Grand Soleil Plus 65 Performance combine elegance and functionality in a refined space, designed by Nauta Design to offer maximum comfort both under sail and at anchor. The saloon, now positioned closer to the level of the forward and aft cabins, ensures smooth and harmonious circulation, while premium materials and tailored finishes reflect the owner’s taste and personality.
In the Performance version—distinguished by a sleek deckhouse and sportier design—the galley is set to port and moved aft to optimize the space dedicated to dining and relaxation. The engine room retains its traditional position just aft of the engines.
Every detail is crafted to turn life on board into an exclusive experience, where style and practicality coexist in perfect balance.
grand soleil plus
Cantiere del Pardo boasts a segment of yachts above 60 feet, taking advantage of new facilities as well as a new dedicated team. Models over 60 feet follow the same path as the other Grand Soleil designs, offering two versions: Performance and Long Cruise. They also are developed according to the needs of the owners who appreciate a made-to-measure approach, to live their adventures in comfort, safety and autonomy in the utmost respect of the marine habitat.
The new Grand Soleil Plus 65 Performance represent the pinnacle and synthesis of Grand Soleil’s shipbuilding experience. 65 feet of quality, tradition and attention to detail, that together will shape a boat built to the highest standards of the boating industry.
