2008 Grand Soleil 43

The 2008 Grand Soleil 43 is an Italian-designed cruising sailboat built on a fiberglass hull, measuring 43 feet in length with a 13-foot beam. Her 2.50-meter draft provides excellent stability and upwind performance. The open transom design facilitates easy boarding and contributes to a contemporary appearance. Power comes from a single 55 hp Volvo Penta diesel engine for reliable maneuvering and cruising.

The boat is rigged with a carbon mast in excellent condition and equipped with two carbon steering wheels, combining performance with a modern aesthetic. A complete sail wardrobe is aboard, with portions recently renewed to ensure optimal trim across varying wind conditions. The rig supports serious sailing capability while maintaining accessible handling.

Interior accommodation includes three cabins and two heads. Recent upgrades enhance the cruising experience: the saloon upholstery has been renewed, and a new battery charger has been installed. These improvements refresh the living spaces while supporting modern electrical demands underway.
