Grand Soleil 46′

The Grand Soleil 46′ is a fast cruiser which has achieved a perfect balance between performance and timeless design. It is the only boat of its size containing luxury detail and technology from custom-made yachts.


Design that performs

Cantiere del Pardo has always relied on top designers to develop projects with great personality, characterised by their excellent performance and unmistakable elegance. The Grand Soleil 46 was created by top design duo Botin&Carkeek.


A perfect balance

The GS 46′ was designed for performance but is also great fun to sail, as well as being extremely competitive when racing under the various regatta regulations. Its waterlines, deck and interior design achieve a perfect balance, which is the result of the passion and care which Cantiere del Pardo has obtained its position as an international market leader.


Lifestyle and Sport

The Grand Soleil 46′ provides unique pleasure when it comes to cruising. It is fast, safe, comfortable and easy to steer, even with reduced crew. In races, its competitive nature comes to the fore, as the boat has been optimized to give the best possible performance in both IRC and ORC.


Design details

Every detail is characterized by elegance, quality, innovation and safety. The magic touch of Attivo Design and Mauro Sculli has further improved the spaces and given the Grand Soleil 46′ a style which epitomizes discreet, modern luxury.


The view

The deck layout is similar to that of the Maxi yachts, with an integrated bulwark, flush portholes, wide gangways and the exclusive stern area with sunbathing platform and a large hatch enabling access to the sea. These features make the Grand Soleil 46′ completely original compared to other boats of the same size.


A home from home

The internal layout is divided into three cabins, an ample dinette and two bathrooms. The precious materials of the interior have been entrusted to expert, skilled craftsmen. Particular attention has been paid to enhancing both natural and artificial light. All these details make the interior of the Grand Soleil 46′ a real pleasure to live in.


Core and Style

Every Grand Soleil 46′ is special because it is unique. Each owner can personalize their boat to make it different to the others, choosing the solutions they prefer. Cantiere del Pardo guarantees top quality standards in terms of performance and comfort.


Cutting-edge technologies

For the first time, a Grand Soleil boat has been built using the infusion method, making the hull more rigid as well lighter. The boat, designed by Botin, is the result of the latest research in the field of fluid dynamics. The T-shaped bulb keel comes directly from the experience applied to Americas′s Cup and TP 52 boats, in order to guarantee the greatest possible performance and safety.
