The French yacht manufacturer Jeanneau designed and built the Sun Fast 3200 as a shorthanded racing boat with events such as the Transatlantic Yacht Race in mind. They have proven to be exceptional shorthanded racing boats and Solstice is an excellent example. The level of comfort and amount of room is also a feature of this boat and makes for a very fast and easily sailed cruising boat.
Solstice features an extensive sail wardrobe, a low hours diesel engine, a strengthened keel, modern top quality electronics (replaced in 2020) and all the safety gear for Category 2 compliance. The boat is also fitted with an Iridium Go satellite communication system and has inbuilt redundancy on essential systems like the auto pilot. This is a very strong and seaworthy boat with top quality equipment. Solstice has been well maintained and is in excellent condition.
