Dufour Gib Sea 43

GIB'SEA 43 from 2002
Well-equipped sailing yacht for offshore navigation, this model offers 3/4 configurable cabins, including a convertible owner’s cabin, and 2 bathrooms (chemical and electric toilets). Powered by a Volvo Penta MD22 (injectors and pump serviced in 2019, new starter in 2024), it is ready for adventure. Navigation electronics include a VHF ASN, a Furuno chartplotter, a hydraulic Raymarine autopilot, and solar panels (3x140W) coupled with an Aerogen 4 wind turbine for enhanced autonomy. The standing rigging was replaced in 2019, with sails recently serviced (genoa from 2020 and Main sail serviced in 2021).

Generous tanks: 600L of water and 250L of diesel, ideal for long crossings. Onboard comfort is optimized with a large electric drain fridge, a fitted kitchen with oven and gas burners, and an anchor windlass serviced in 2024 to facilitate maneuvers. This sailing yacht also features an Alpine audio system with 4 speakers (interior and cockpit) and a high energy capacity thanks to new AGM batteries (2023 for services, 2024 for the engine). Finally, a Bigship dinghy from 2021 and comprehensive safety equipment, such as 8 life jackets and an Epirb distress beacon, make it a boat ready to sail with confidence.
