Saga 43 - WINDRESS
The Saga 43 is a masthead sloop designed by Robert Perry and built by Saga Marine. She is a fast and efficient cruiser that is also comfortable and spacious. She sails well to windward and is very stable in a seaway.
Her fine entry and long waterline gives her good performance in all conditions. Her plumb bow and broad stern provides further stability and comfort.Ã?Â
The Saga 43 can accommodate up to six people in comfort. Two cabins, two heads, a main salon, a galley, and a navigation station. The cabins are spacious and well-appointed, with cherry wood cabinetry and plenty of storage space. The heads are also spacious with showers and molded sinks which are easy to clean.
The salon is a comfortable place to relax and entertain guests, with a large table and seating for up to six people. The galley is well-equipped with all the necessary appliances for cooking and baking. The navigation station is located forward of the galley and has plenty of space for charts and electronics.
