Grand Soleil 46.3 – Alba Lunare
€154,950 | EU VAT Paid
Polish Registered
Location: Vliho, Lefkada, Greece
Alba Lunare is an exceptionally well-specified and extensively upgraded Grand Soleil 46.3, designed by J&J Design and built by Cantiere Del Pardo (Italy). Launched in 2000, she was originally commissioned for the Cantiere Del Pardo company lawyer and ordered as a full-options Regatta version, featuring the taller mast and deeper 2.20m regatta bulb keel.
In 2017 she was sold to the previous owner (French) and spent the majority of 2017 and 2018 undergoing a complete refit. This included considerable epoxy work to strengthen forward of the mast (under forward heads & cabin).
In 2020 the teak deck was removed and deck painted with white non-slip Awlgrip (by DS marine in Port Napoleon) and the hull in blue Awlgrip.
In 2023 she was bought by the current owners and the hull was repainted in Pearl Grey (Awlgrip) by DS Marine Port Napoleon. Whilst ashore, the keel was dropped, keel bolts checked and precautionary reinforcement added to the keel attachment. A black water holding tank was also fitted. She was sailed from Marseille to Lefkada where she is now.
Maintained without compromise and benefiting from multiple major refits over more than a decade, Alba Lunare represents a rare opportunity to acquire a proven offshore performance cruiser with modern systems, recent sails, upgraded rigging, reinforced structure, and a high-quality Awlgrip finish.
She is VAT paid, Polish flagged, and currently lying in Lefkada, Greece.
