2002 Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 40 -- A Serious Bluewater Cruiser Ready for Her Next Adventure
For the offshore sailor who demands capability without compromise, this 2002 Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 40 is a rare opportunity to own one of France's most respected bluewater cruising yachts.
Built by Wauquiez -- a yard with a legendary reputation for robust, ocean-ready construction -- the Pilot Saloon 40 was designed from the keel up for serious passage-making. Her deep, powerful hull, protective coachroof, and the distinctive pilot saloon layout offer exceptional visibility underway and a safe, comfortable environment when the ocean gets real.
Why the Pilot Saloon 40 stands apart:
· Pilot saloon design keeps the watch-keeper warm, dry, and connected to the helm -- ideal for solo and short-handed offshore sailing
· Stiff, seakindly hull with a proven track record on bluewater passages including the Pacific, Indian Ocean, and Southern routes
· Generous tankage and storage for extended passages well beyond the cruising grounds
· Quality French build -- Wauquiez's attention to structural integrity is evident throughout
U4iA has been recently professionaly detailed, is fully stocked and loaded with extras, she is ready to sail!
Whether you're eyeing the Coral Sea, the Pacific circuit, or rounding the bottom of the world, this is the boat to do it on.
