2005 Grand Soleil 37 B&C - Lovitana

Lovitana is a beautifully maintained 2005 Grand Soleil 37 B&C, a yacht that perfectly captures the qualities that have made Grand Soleil one of the most respected names in performance cruising. Designed by the acclaimed Botin & Carkeek team and built by Cantiere Del Pardo in Italy, she combines elegant lines, responsive sailing performance and robust construction in a package equally suited to coastal cruising, offshore passagemaking and competitive sailing.

Originally cruised throughout the Mediterranean by her previous owners, Lovitana was purchased in Palma de Mallorca in 2018 by her current owners, who were drawn to the model's renowned sailing characteristics, quality craftsmanship and timeless design. She spent several years exploring Corsica, Sardinia, the Balearic Islands and the South of France as a family cruising yacht before undergoing a substantial refit programme in preparation for a planned World ARC circumnavigation.

Significant upgrades completed since 2022 include a Volvo Penta D2-50 engine, new sail inventory, bowsprit for asymmetric sails, upgraded navigation electronics, autopilot, solar charging, hydrogenerator, freshwater systems and numerous enhancements aimed at safe and comfortable short-handed offshore cruising. Following a successful Pacific crossing, a replacement mast package has been ordered and is scheduled for delivery, creating a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a highly upgraded offshore yacht with substantial recent investment already completed.

Currently located in Tahiti, French Polynesia, Lovitana presents as a capable and rewarding performance cruiser, equally suited to ambitious passagemaking or enjoyable cruising closer to home. She offers an exceptional combination of proven offshore pedigree, modern upgrades and renowned Grand Soleil sailing performance.
