2008 Wauquiez Centurion 40S

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.
