Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 55

This new flagship will benefit from the experience acquired by Wauquiez with its highly successful predecessors.
Larger, faster and more comfortable, the Pilot Saloon 55 also add a new dimension to the Pilot Saloon concept in terms of equipment and luxury: she will truly be a prestigious and exceptional blue water sailing yacht.

Deck layout and rigging:
Simple and efficient
The Pilot Saloon 55 comes with the arch that takes the mainsheet away from the cockpit and receives the bimini, cockpit speakers, cockpit light etc…the 2 electric primary winches allow a complete control of the boat from any of the 2 steering stations.
The genoa and main sheets as well as the manoeuvring lines are run aft under the coachouse coamings, for a totally uncluttered deck.
To make short handed sailing easy, the foretriangle of the Pilot Saloon 55 consists in an efficient and simple self tacking jib. The long bow fitting is designed to receive a furling gennaker or «Code Zero» for light air performance. The mainsail (fully battened or in mast furling) is also easily manoeuvered and trimmed from the helmsman’s stations.

Accommodations:
Natural lighting, luxurious space and comfort
As with all Pilot Saloons, the 55 offers a panoramic 360° vision from the saloon, whether seated around the dinette table to starboard or at the navigation station to port.
Burmese teak is present everywhere, and the Pilot Saloon 55 offers an outstandingly refined living space inside, whether in the owner’s aft cabin or in the 2 guest cabins, with their en suite head compartments.
The «U» shaped galley of the Pilot Saloon 55 is designed to be as comfortable and convenient at sea as in the harbour, with an impressive storage volume.
