Garcia CARAMBOLA

A rare opportunity for travel enthusiasts and character sailboats! Discover Carambola, a stunning 11-meter aluminum cruising sailboat. With a prestigious lineage, this seasoned sailor is the spiritual equivalent of the legendary Maracuja, in a more compact and versatile size.

Prestigious lineage: The "Maracuja" spirit in 11 meters

The "little brother" of a myth: For connoisseurs, Maracuja is the absolute reference for aluminum cruising sailboats. Carambola embodies the same philosophy: a tolerant hull, spacious interior volume, excellent livability on board, and exceptional durability... all condensed into 11 meters.

Harlé-designed architecture: A legendary signature, guaranteeing a seaworthy boat, balanced at sea and easy to handle, built for confident offshore navigation.

Grand Mottois Shipyard: A renowned manufacturer, known for the high quality of its aluminum tanking and the robustness of its craftsmanship. A solid structure designed to last.

The advantages of Carambola (Long-lasting aluminum)

Safety and Absolute Durability: The aluminum hull offers unmatched resistance to shocks (corals, wooden billets, keel lurches). Where polyester breaks, aluminum deforms but maintains watertightness. It is the material of absolute peace of mind on long voyages.

No Osmosis & Longevity: No structural aging related to humidity. Aluminum retains excellent value on the secondary market and requires no heavy structural maintenance.

The Ideal Size (11m): Lighter and more maneuverable than a classic Maracuja, it’s easy to handle with a small crew or single-handed, while significantly reducing port costs.

Use: Offshore cruising, year-round living aboard, extended voyages.

Finding an aluminum Harlé plan from the Grand Mottois Shipyard on the market is already rare. But a model offering the volume and voyage philosophy of a Maracuja in an 11-meter format is a rare gem.
