Island Flyer is a rare opportunity to own a well-equipped Wauquiez Centurion 40S—an elegant French-built performance cruiser designed by Berret/Racoupeau to deliver excellent sailing performance without sacrificing comfort or offshore capability.
Purchased new from a U.S. dealer in Annapolis by her current owner, Island Flyer has benefited from knowledgeable, long-term ownership and has been equipped for both competitive sailing and comfortable cruising. Her quality construction, responsive hull, and beautifully finished teak interior set her apart from more production-oriented cruiser/racers.
For the performance-minded sailor, Island Flyer offers an extensive sail inventory, including cruising and racing sails, upgraded Quantum Kevlar/Carbon sails, multiple headsails, reacher and runner, carbon-fiber spinnaker pole, hydraulic backstay adjuster, and Harken winches. Her performance is proven, including a 1st-place finish at 2025 Charleston Race Week.
Below deck, her warm teak interior features two private cabins, a spacious salon, a dedicated navigation station, a functional galley, reverse-cycle air conditioning, and a head with a separate shower. A fold-down swim platform, electric windlass, generous cockpit storage, and a 2021 dodger, bimini, connector, and side curtains add to her cruising versatility.
Electronics were substantially updated in 2019 with Raymarine Axiom chartplotters at the helm and nav station, autopilot, i70 instruments, HD radar, and AIS. Auxiliary power is provided by a 55 HP Yanmar diesel, with a 2017 saildrive and three-blade Max-Prop.
For a sailor looking for something more distinctive than a typical production cruiser, Island Flyer offers an exceptional combination of pedigree, performance, equipment, and cruising comfort.
