The Story of the Grand Soleil 52 “Heiracon” https://www.grandsoleil.nz/the-story-of-the-grand-soleil-52-heiracon/ Tue, 14 Nov 2017 00:12:30 +0000 http://www.grandsoleil.nz/the-story-of-the-grand-soleil-52-heiracon/ Since listing the Grand Soleil 52 “Heiracon” we had someone very special reach out to us…

Paolo was the proud first owner of Heiracon, sailing her for 8 years, over 50,000 nautical miles. They travelled the Mediterranean sea and through the Caribbean for three winters! Paolo was so kind as to provide us with photos of their journey together and is happy to answer any questions about her history.

“Heiracon” is still very much ‘on the wave’! Contact our sales team to arrange a viewing.

Auckland On Water Boat Show 2017- it’s a wrap! https://www.grandsoleil.nz/auckland-on-water-boat-show-2017-its-a-wrap/ Thu, 05 Oct 2017 00:43:24 +0000 http://www.grandsoleil.nz/auckland-on-water-boat-show-2017-its-a-wrap/ Thank you to everyone who came to visit us on one of our THREE stands at the Auckland On Water Boat Show.

Our Rivera stand was more than twice the size it was last year with seven luxury models on display. We had the impressive 4800, 5400 and 6000 sport yachts, the 445 and 525 from our SUV range and the 52 and 57 flybridge open to view. The 57 flybridge featured a cockpit done in Permateek which sparked a lot of interest in this new product.

We had Tony Johnston and Murray McLeod manning our Yacht Stand, displaying the Dufour 350, 412 and 460 as well as the Grand Soleil 43.

Inside Pavilion 1 manning our Service Stand we had Bart Caldwell and Johnny Ellis demonstrating the Seakeeper Gyroscope, Bluewater Water makers and the very popular new synthetic decking material Permateek.

Above: The Girls of the Riviera Stand (from left to right) Isobel Ferguson, Afrika McNall, Nicole Loper, Venecia Martin, Madeleine Torckler, Mieka Thomas, Alicia McIntyre, Marieke Thomas and Abbey Jones.
