We are selling our Ponyo, a Gib Sea 442 with a shallow draft (1.65m). Self-sufficient and ready for long voyages (prepared for an Atlantic crossing). 80,000 euros worth of work was completed in 2025 (receipts provided) to modernize it (Axiom Pro, new VHF, Iridium Go, AIS, 400W solar panel...) and to enhance safety (hull, rigging, engine, bow thruster, sails, waterproofing...).
With its shallow draft, Ponyo is ideal for the Breton coasts as well as Caribbean lagoons. It offers spacious interiors (headroom, cabins also at 1.90m), a large and bright saloon. There are 2 double aft cabins, 2 forward bunk cabins, 2 toilets, 1 bathroom, a U-shaped galley, and ample storage.
Highly regarded for charter and collective use, the Gib Sea offers significant volume with many lockers both outside and inside. Versatile and powerful, the GibSea 442 adapts to all programs and will smoothly handle rough seas. Sturdily built, it is suitable for both long journeys and short trips.
For self-sufficiency, it has a 400 L freshwater tank with filtration, a 200 L fuel tank, and 400 W of solar panels charging lithium batteries.
Ponyo is easy to sail solo: genoa and mainsail reefing are managed with 2 electric winches. Perfect for family trips, with safety in mind.
A safety rail has been installed around the entire boat for added security.
The bow thruster was rebuilt in 2025 to facilitate easy port entries.
If interested, we will provide a full sales dossier and the best option is to visit the boat in person.
