Here we present a Grand Soleil 34.1, which has been kept in immaculate condition by the current owner. One of a small batch ever made, this version boasts the racing keel and mast and is set up for racing/cruising, although the current owner has comfortably used her as a cruiser in his many years of ownership.
She is powered by a Yanmar 3GM30F 27hp inboard diesel engine, which has been serviced annually during the current ownership and was last serviced in 2021.
The boat was built by Cantiere del Pardo in Forli, Italy and is in its third ownership, the current owner has had her since 2005.
Annual maintenance has been completed in Spring 2022 such as new anodes, antifouling, a full polish and prop overhaul.
It is very rare to find a yacht of its age that has been maintained and cared for to the extent the current owner has cared for this boat and he is very reluctant to be moving her on.
Berth at Portland Marina is available to be continued by a new owner.
She must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
