Solaris Yachts 40

With the Solaris 40 you discover the new standard of its category, designed to sail fast with a small crew. Designed by Javier Soto Acebal, this 12.36-metre sailing yacht takes up a contemporary hull line, with the beam carried aft, generous forward sections and chines running almost the full length — for performance that gives up nothing to comfort.

You sail from a helm station designed for solo or two-handed sailing: all the manoeuvres lead back under the deck to two winches close to the helmsman, and a clever folding seat allows you to steer facing outboard, even without a dedicated side deck. The flare of the hull, forward and aft, reduces the wetted surface for fine performance in light airs, while the twin rudders offer you remarkable grip upwind.

Below deck, your sailing yacht offers you three cabins designed for cruising with family or friends. Your beam of 4.18 metres allows for two aft cabins, while the forward owners cabin enjoys a shower room with a separate shower and six hull portholes bathing the interior in natural light.
