GRAND SOLEIL 43  SPECIFICATIONS

COMMENT

Quokka, a Grand Soleil 43, is one of the most successful race yachts in the UK at the moment.

 

In 2011 she won the IRC Nationals outright against some extremely tough competition, indeed her discard was in fact a 1t place. She also finished in the top 10 overall in the Fastnet 2011, won two RORC offshore races and represented Great Britain in the 2009 Commodores Cup.

 

This year Quokka has a full campaign of racing planned in the UK before heading over to the Caribbean for season via Malta for the Middle Sea Race. Quokka is available for charter in the UK and the Caribbean.

Quokka is a pedigree performer that is ready to race and has the potential for silverware at any event she races at.
