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.
