Garcia Exploration 45 was designed in collaboration with the renowned navigator Jimmy Cornell for long-distance sailing, from Antarctica to the Northwest Passage, and is the first model in the Exploration series. This boat, with excellent seakeeping abilities, is made to be reliable, easy to handle, and durable even in extreme latitudes. You can feel secure when casting off with an Exploration 45; the boat is entirely built of aluminum, has watertight bulkheads fore and aft, and ball valves mounted above the waterline. These are just a few examples of design choices made specifically for long-distance sailing. The onboard equipment is robust, and twin rudders provide maximum control in all sea conditions. The standard version includes an owner’s suite forward of the mast, a sea berth just forward of the saloon, an aft guest cabin with a double bed, a starboard guest cabin that can be used as a workshop, and an adjacent bathroom with a shower cabin.
