The Solaris 57, designed by the renowned Doug Peterson and built in 1992, is a true bluewater sailing yacht that embodies both elegance and performance. With a displacement of 26 tons and a beam of 4.7 meters, this yacht is built for long-distance cruising, offering stability, comfort, and ease of handling. Registered under the Italian flag with VAT paid, she is in excellent condition, reflecting the care and expertise of her current owner of 18 years. Her accommodations include three spacious guest cabins, each with en-suite facilities, plus a master cabin spanning the full beam at the stern and two forward guest cabins. For the captain, a separate cabin aft ensures both privacy and convenience. In 2021, she received an extensive refit with a new teak deck, a fresh epoxy gel shield, and comprehensive winch servicing.
Mechanically sound and equipped with updated navigation and sailing technology, the Solaris 57 is outfitted for optimal performance and reliability. Key features include a Volvo Penta TAMD4 engine, a Northern Lights 6.5 kW generator, and a Marinco water maker. The yacht’s rigging, entirely replaced in 2012, comprises a Dyform standing rigging, a Velscaf mast, and advanced Antal runners, all complemented by electric and manual Lewmar winches for efficient sail handling. Navigation is enhanced by a 2016 suite of Raymarine electronics, Quantum radar, and AIS, while additional equipment such as a hydraulic bow thruster, a diving compressor, and an extensive galley make her perfectly equipped for extended voyages.
