Boat Details
Description
A rare find on the brokerage market, this Grand Soleil 50 from 2015 has it all. A yacht you can enjoy for the sheer pleasure of sailing modern hull lines, clean deck and powerful but easily managed sail plan. In cruising mode, she is a ruthlessly efficient mile muncher while still offering a huge degree of creature comforts. A bright and airy saloon, a spacious and well-equipped central galley, owner cabin forward and two good doubles aft. Still in her original ownership TRUE COLOURS has been meticulously maintained from day one, receiving scheduled maintenance and updates whenever required. Well inventoried from her North sails (which have just had a North health check) to electronics package, she is in turnkey condition.
