Intended for competent and passionate owners who do not want to compromise on comfort and performance, the Grand Soleil 52 is part of the successful Grand Soleil Performance line and is available in two versions, “Performance” and “Race”, to satisfy the needs of the sportier customers and the needs of people who prefer fast cruising to regatta courses.
The “Performance” version provides an “easy sailing” deck and sail plan with 4 aft winches, mainsail sheet with fixed point, self-tacking jib (std.) and carbon bowsprit (std.). The cockpit is perfectly usable by guests, thanks to the choice of recessing all rigging. The “Race” version, however, features 6 winches, longitudinal rails for the jib, recessed mainsail traveller, larger sail plan and a carbon bowsprit that is 90 cm longer than the standard version.
The 52P can be configured for cruising or racing, but in either case she is sure to be the most striking yacht in the harbor.
