Boat Description

I am proud to present my Apocalypse 43, a first-hand boat that has always been very well maintained and is very well equipped. The hull underwent a full sandblasting in 2018, ensuring its excellent condition. The sails and engine are recent, providing optimal performance.

This boat is an Apocalypse 43 built in 1985 and registered in France on September 30, 1986. It measures 13.07 meters in length. It is a Kevlar and Iso resin sandwich construction, making it very strong and light, with no risk of osmosis.
