The Wauquiez Pilot Saloon is a true pilot saloon, with raised salon/dinette and galley which afford visibility and ample light through the large eyebrow windows. Wauquiez (pronounced Vok-ee-yay) are renowned for their low-production, high-quality vessels. The factory is in the north of France and this brand has all the DNA of a good, French built and designed cruising boat – with performance being the highest priority.
The owners of Iolanthe have used her actively in the time they have been her custodians (since 2010), taking her to the Bahamas on a regular basis, enjoying her strengths as a capable offshore sailing vessel and a comfortable cruiser.
The features that really sold them on the boat was the quality of the build and the fold-down transom, which makes access to and from the water safe and effortless.
This, along with:
simple, reliable 55HP engine pushes the boat at a comfortable 7 knots and which is easy to access/service;
outstanding maneuverability
shallow draft (5’5”);
ICW friendly mast & sturdy rig;
all lines leading to the cockpit;
bright salon & galley with good visibility;
2 private cabins with en-suite heads allowing privacy for owners and guests;
at 42’5” LOA, this is a big ’41 footer’.
