Elan E3

Elan E3 Performance Cruiser VOLANTE - exclusively for sale with DBY Boat Sales.

Raced out of the beautiful waters of Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club on Pittwater, VOLANTE is a superb example of the modern prize winning performance cruiser, the highly regarded Elan E3.

Built in 2014 and first registered in 2015, this 32-foot yacht perfectly balances spirited club racing performance with comfortable cruising capability. She was originally purchased with the intention of enjoying both racing and cruising in the spectacular Pittwater region--and while she has seen plenty of enjoyable racing, her cruising inventory remains lightly used and ready for extended weekend adventures.

The current owner has maintained VOLANTE to a very high standard, ensuring she presents in excellent condition. Professional servicing and care have been entrusted to North Shore Marine, well known for their quality workmanship and attention to detail.

For racing, VOLANTE is equipped with a set of North 3DL sails from North Sails, approximately eight years old and well suited to competitive club racing. Complementing this is a cruising sail wardrobe that has seen very little use, giving the next owner excellent versatility between relaxed cruising and spirited racing.

Downwind performance is fully covered with both symmetrical and asymmetrical spinnakers, making her equally at home on the racecourse or flying along Pittwater on a breezy summer afternoon.

The Elan E3 design is widely admired for its quick, responsive sailing characteristics, modern styling, and practical layout, making it a popular choice for sailors who want a yacht that is as enjoyable to race as it is to cruise.

If you are looking for a well-maintained, exciting performance cruiser with proven club racing credentials, VOLANTE deserves your attention.

Currently racing from Pittwater and ready for her next adventure.
