Overview

The Grand Soleil 43 is a beautiful looking yacht with stunning lines and superb performance. A fabulous yacht in all weathers, fast and comfortable.
'Heligan Honey' is a very tidy example of these capable and elegant sailing yachts. She has in-mast furling and is easily sailed short-handed from the cockpit.
She was built to last and her outstanding seakeeping qualities and well-balanced handling make her a delight to sail.

'Heligan Honey' has a very full inventory includes radar, plotter, GPS, Navtex, liferaft, featherstream prop, cabin heating, dinghy, outboard, etc. and has been so loved and well cared for.
She under went a full Re Rig in Sept 2020 and has had comprehensive upgrades along with regular engine servicing by a Yanmar professional, ensuring this boat is in peak condition for her next owner.
She is on her berth in Falmouth and a viewing is highly recomended
