EXPERIENCE THE ULTIMATE FREEDOM AT SEA
The Grand Soleil Yachts Long Cruise range has a new arrival: the Grand Soleil 60 Long Cruise, an exquisite blend of efficiency, timeless style, and constant innovation. With a deck design, interior design and G.A. by Nauta Design and naval architecture by Matteo Polli, this new model exemplifies the brand’s commitment to bluewater sailing.
Ideal for long-distance cruises, the Grand Soleil 60 Long Cruise establishes new benchmarks in navigation, boasting enhanced comfort and seamless sailing, facilitated by its accommodating storage and tanks designed for extended independent voyages.
Responding to valuable customer feedback, the Grand Soleil 60 Long Cruise marks the culmination of the standard Long Cruise series – serving as its flagship-, providing an ideal middle ground for owners looking to upscale experience without compromising on cost-effectiveness.
The Grand Soleil 60 Long Cruise is tailored to deliver classic Long Criuse features, prioritizing exceptional comfort and easy sailing while maintaining optimal performance. Noteworthy design elements include a pronounced V-shaped bow, low-wet surface, and outstanding dynamic stability.
EFFICIENCY, STYLE AND INNOVATION
Designed for maximum volume both above and below deck, the “step-free” deck layout facilitates effortless movement around the yacht, whether underway or at anchor. The choice between versions with or without a rollbar offers customization to suit individual preferences. The semi-raised saloon and strategically placed hull windows flood the interior with natural light, enhancing the overall sense of spaciousness.
The cockpit layout undergoes some slight yet significant design tweaks to improve ergonomics and comfort. The bench cushions have been extended over the top of the coachroof to offer a cosy lounging area that is also protected by the spray hood. Moreover, the spacious bench design goes beyond enhancing seating comfort; the cockpit tables can be lowered, transforming the area into two extensive sunbathing spots.
This thoughtful design adjustment complements the strategic placement of all main winches and controls within easy reach of the helm, facilitating short-handed sailing.
The yacht is equipped with a fully battened furling mainsail, and hydraulic controls for both the backstay and vang add to the sailing efficiency.
Additional features include a foldable aft platform, extending the boat by a meter when anchored to provide extra space. Wide side decks further contribute to overall accessibility and safety on deck.
NO ROLLBAR VERSION
INTERIORS LAYOUT
Below deck, the companionway opens onto a spacious saloon. In the standard three-cabin version, the open-plan galley is located forward and spans both sides of the yacht, situated between the saloon and the owner’s cabin. This layout provides ample space for a full-height fridge-freezer. In the optional interior layout, owners have the choice to replace the starboard side of the galley with a fourth cabin featuring bunk beds.
The comfortable owner’s cabin boasts a French-style bed (a rare feature on an 18-meter yacht) and an en-suite bathroom located forward. At the stern, two guest cabins—one double and one twin—each with a private bathroom, can accommodate up to four guests. Additionally, a crew cabin for two is located in the most forward section of the yacht, included in both layouts.
