FOR SALE : CARAMBOLA – Harlé Outline / Grand Mottois Shipyard (11.45m, Aluminum, Fixed Keel)

A rare opportunity for travel enthusiasts and sailors of character! Discover Carambola, a stunning 11.45-meter aluminum cruising sailboat. Coming from a prestigious lineage, this seasoned sailor is the spiritual equivalent of the legendary Maracuja, in a more compact and versatile size.

A prestigious heritage: The "Maracuja" spirit
The "little brother" of a legend: For connoisseurs, Maracuja is the absolute reference for aluminum cruising sailboats. Carambola adopts its philosophy: a tolerant hull, a spacious interior, excellent livability for aboard living, and unmatched robustness... all condensed.

Harlé-designed architecture: A legendary signature, a testament to a seafaring boat, well balanced at sea and easy to handle, designed to brave offshore navigation calmly.

Grand Mottois Shipyard: A benchmark builder, renowned for the high quality of its aluminum metalwork and the robustness of its samples. A sound structure built to last.

Benefits of Carambola (Aluminum for long voyages)

Safety and Absolute Durability: The aluminum hull provides unique resistance to shocks (corals, wood splinters, heelings). Where polyester breaks, aluminum deforms but remains watertight. It’s the material of total serenity for long voyages.

Zero Osmosis & Longevity: No aging of the structure due to humidity. Aluminum maintains excellent resale value and requires no heavy structural maintenance.

The Ideal Size (11m): Lighter and more maneuverable than a classic Maracuja, it’s easily handled by a small crew or solo, while significantly reducing port costs.

Usage: Offshore cruising, year-round living aboard, long-distance cruising.
Finding an aluminum Harlé plan from the Grand Mottois Shipyard on the market is already rare. But a model offering the volume and travel philosophy of a Maracuja in an 11-meter format is a true gem.
