The 2003 Jeanneau Sun Fast 43 is that elusive combination every sailor hopes to find: a yacht with true offshore capability, impressive regatta performance, and the comfort of a well-appointed cruiser. This particular vessel has crossed the Tasman three times, a testament to its reliability, strength, and bluewater credentials. Well optioned for distance cruising, it's set up for sailors who want to go further, stay out longer, and do it all with confidence.
The Sun Fast 43 has exactly the same deck, cockpit and interior as the Sun Odyssey 43, the same stunning full Burmese teak interior finish, robust construction, and use of space. An extremely comfortable yacht to spend extended time onboard.
If winter regattas up north are calling your name, the Sun Fast 43 is more than ready to stretch its legs. These yachts are renowned for their lively, responsive performance -- a design that rewards keen sailors and makes fast passages feel effortless. It's a rare opportunity to enjoy cruising comfort while still chewing up the sea miles.
