Dufour Gib'Sea 43 (sejlbåd) til salg

Constuction The Dufour Gib’Sea 43 is a robust, ocean-capable cruising yacht built in France by Dufour Yachts.
Her hull is constructed of solid hand-laid fiberglass (GRP) for strength and durability, while the deck features a balsa-cored sandwich construction to provide rigidity and insulation without excessive weight.
The hull-to-deck joint is mechanically fastened and bonded, ensuring a watertight seal and long-term structural integrity.
The internal structural grid is molded and bonded directly to the hull, distributing rig and keel loads evenly and enhancing stiffness.
The ballast is encapsulated within a cast iron fin keel, and the balanced spade rudder is mounted on a solid stainless-steel stock, offering responsive steering and reliability.

SummaryThe Dufour Gib’Sea 43 is a remarkably spacious and versatile cruising yacht, perfectly suited to comfortable family sailing or extended cruising adventures. Her clever interior design offers exceptional flexibility — the forward cabins can be arranged as one luxurious en-suite owner’s suite with a seating area, or easily converted into two separate cabins, one double and one twin-bunk, ideal for children or guests. Aft, there are two generous double cabins, providing comfortable private spaces for family and friends.
On deck, she features a large, well-protected cockpit with twin helm wheels, a full cockpit canopy, and a bimini, creating an inviting and secure area for both sailing and relaxing at anchor.
Deya has benefited from extensive upgrades and care over the past two years, including new standing and running rigging, refreshed saloon upholstery, upgraded LED lighting, a rebuilt engine, and a new electric outboard, among many other improvements. Presented in fantastic condition, she is equally at home as a capable long-distance cruiser or as a comfortable, family-friendly yacht — truly ready to step aboard and sail away.

AccommodationThe Dufour Gib’Sea 43 offers a highly versatile and spacious interior, designed for comfort and adaptability at sea or in port. The forward accommodation features a flexible layout with two distinct configurations.
Deya's Layout transforms the space into a large en-suite double berth cabin by removing two wall panels between the forward and bunk cabins (stowed neatly beside the hanging locker), lowering the top bunk to form a generous settee, and repositioning the bunk cabin door to close off the saloon.
The forward V-berth cabin includes a seat, mood lighting, shelving with storage boxes, hanging locker, hatch blinds, and opening hatches for ventilation. The starboard bunk cabin (when configured) offers a hanging locker, opening portlight, and deck hatch. The forward heads lie to port and lead through to the bright and comfortable main saloon.
The saloon features an L-shaped settee to starboard around a fixed dining table, with an additional L-shaped settee on the centreline. A linear galley lies to port, opposite a chart table to starboard, with the aft heads positioned just aft of the galley.
Natural light and ventilation are excellent throughout, with three opening overhead hatches, four opening portlights, and a fixed portlight. Interior lighting is modern and flexible, featuring LED white, red, and blue options, remote-controlled mood lighting, and LED touch reading lamps. Storage is well thought out, with lockers above and beneath the settees, as well as additional under-floor compartments.
Aft are two double berth cabins, each accessed via port and starboard doors. Both cabins include hanging lockers, ample storage, opening portlights to deck and stern, and roof hatches. The starboard aft cabin also benefits from a small seat. The central companionway lifts to provide access to the engine, supplemented by additional access panels in both aft cabins.
