PRESS REVIEW:
There’s so much more to Solaris Power’s newest and smallest model, the Solaris Power 40 Open than just a pretty face.
In fact Solaris is adamant that its primary design priority is seaworthiness, and judging from our sea trials of both the larger Solar Power 44 and Solaris Power 48, they do seem to have an uncannily soft, dry ride for boats that look like they were designed for lazy days at anchor rather than pounding through the rough stuff. The difference with this new model is that it runs on Volvo Penta sterndrives rather than IPS pods, which should make for an even more sporty, agile 41-knot driving experience…
What we can tell you from crawling all over it at the Palma Boat Show is that all the usual Solaris qualities are still here in abundance, despite the smaller dimensions and lower starting price.
It still has single-level walkaround decks with tall enough bulwarks not to need guardrails on top, the pop-up cleats and clip-in fender holders are just as neat as ever, and the elegant workings of the stainless thru-hull anchor mechanism could grace the insides of a Swiss clock.
Sunpads at both ends and moveable backrests on the dinette bench seats make the most of the available deck space while still leaving plenty of room for an exceptionally well equipped outdoor galley and three supportive triple helm seats.
The layout below decks is largely open plan with a good sized double bed forwards and a pair of singles with limited headroom tucked under the cockpit, which Solaris claims is the longest in its sector. Judicious use of light woods, deck hatches and LEDs ensures it all looks and feels very airy. The separate heads even has a proper walk-in shower compartment…
…The Solaris Power 40 appears to deliver form and function with typical Solaris panache. There are copious T-top sportscruisers on the market but when it comes to styling, the Solaris range has them all licked. One rendering even shows a Solaris Power 40 without the optional T-top and it looks absolutely glorious – a true modern classic.
It’s not all about looks, however, because Solaris claims the boat has the longest cockpit in the sector, which includes a three-person helm station, wet bar and convertible dinette that transforms to double the amount of sunbathing space at the stern.
Motor Boat & Yachting
MANUFACTURER’S BACKGROUND:
The boatyard’s reputation, founded in Aquileia 45 years ago, is better known among German, Swiss and Austrian yachtsmen than it is in Italy. Right from the beginning, the company’s philosophy has been the building seaworthy, solid and secure sailing boats to the highest quality standards, capable of challenging the prestigious Scandinavian and Dutch yacht builders. Fittingly, Solaris claims that our yachts are also: ‘Built for sailors’.
Its volume and revenues increased fivefold in just a few years and today it is the European leader in the category of top-class sailing boats from 50’ to 110’. There are not many boatyards left today, who can combine leading-edge technology with traditional craftsmanship of detail and finishing as Solaris Yachts does. Since 2008 Solaris also operates a production unit dedicated to motoryachts from 44’ to 100’, including five 90’ luxury displacement motoryachts for an internationally renowned brand. This facility is now the builder of the new Solaris Power range, to the same exacting quality standards of Solaris sailboats.
