Description: Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 48
This immaculate example of the Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 48 was originally being built for the Dusseldorf Boat show. Due to its cancellation you now have a rare opportunity to become the owner of a Brand New Wauquiez, optioned up and ready for blue water cruising without the long wait time currently seen with some vendors.
A GENUINE DECK SALOON - A perfect blue water cruiser, the Pilot Saloon 48 is the quintessence of Wauquiez' expertise in terms of conception and high-end yacht building. The ''Pilot Saloon'' concept, launched by Henri Wauquiez 20 years ago, continue to attract many sailors looking for a versatile sailing yacht, matching every sailing program and offering comfort, brightness and high performance.
A POWERFUL AND VERSATILE HULL - The powerful, versatile hull has been designed to endure the harshest sailing conditions. Equipped with a 2,10-meter bulb keel and a mast higher than 19,60 meters, the Pilot Saloon 48 is stiff and efficient in all points of sailing.
AN EFFICIENT DECK LAY-OUT - The sleek lines of the roof emphasize the yacht's thoroughbred style. The uncluttered deck offers great visibility forward thanks to the flush deck hatches and the control lines lead aft to the cockpit. The cockpit is practical, safe and comfortable: the helm station is equipped with all necessary assistance for single-handed sailing (oversized winches placed at the helm station, an optional self-tacking track can be integrated). The transom opens up as a bathing platform and enables easy access to the tender garage.
A SALOON WITH PANORAMIC SEA VIEW - True to the genuine ''deck saloon concept'', the saloon is on one single level and offers great panoramic sea views. Located in the gangway to port, the galley enjoys a great number of storage cabinets and all the comfort necessary to long journeys. The waxed teak used on all Wauquiez remains the dominant interior feature, while other materials (leather, stainless steel) give the Pilot Saloon 48 her thoroughly refined and modern style.
COMFORT AND SPACE - The owner's aft cabin is large, with great storage space, its ensuite bathroom features a separate shower. Two guest cabins forward have all the comfort worthy of the greatest yachts. A bathroom is located near the 2 guests cabins. Both bathrooms (the owner's and the guests') are equipped with a white-coloured stone resin vanity top, which underlines the contemporary spirit of the yacht's interior design.
