The new Grand Soleil 40 Performance brings together the credentials of design, fun and high performance to repeat the successes of its 44-foot big brother, winner of the last ORC World Championship. Maintaining style, elegance and safety throughout the range, it is a fast and reactive sailboat with a sporty sailing personality. The lines of the hull are an evolution to obtain a good balance between volume as the length increases. The water lines in the bow remain fine for good speed and smooth wave passage.
