Exterior design in sailing yachts is more about function than form, but through its forms you can recognise how well executed is the function. You can immediately see the new Grand Soleil 44 Performance is meant for business with its sharp bow, the low freeboard, the flared stern and the longer than usual bowsprit. The high gloss white gelcoat of the hull contrasts with the black carbon mast and sails and makes the profile even more slender and sporty like a fast sports car. This sleek form is accentuated by the functionally taken aft mast and evidently great performance.

Let's start with the most important thing - the performance. Amazingly you can order your Grand Soleil 44 Performance with a T-keel especially optimised for ORC handicap system (remember that Matteo Polli is called il mago dell'ORC). Experts in competitive racing will instantly recognise the effects of having a carbon rudder stock and blade and every other equipment you need to win races like the carbon mast and boom, rod rigging, Harken racing deck gear, dyneema halyards, stay sail pack and gennaker gear. Of course you can expect options elevating your comfortable experience like teak cockpit sole, spray hood, Bimini, cockpit cushions for those relaxing times at anchor near a secluded cove in a beautiful quite bay. Bring contemporary looks to the interior with lighting behind carefully selected places that also creates an inviting and welcoming atmosphere.
