Overview

The Bob Perry designed Saga 43 is described by Perry as designed to be a legitimate fast cruiser that would combine elements from racing trends with a long waterline that increases speed and interior volume," says Perry. "Most cruisers are designed inside out, but not here. We wanted to appeal to an owner who knows performance. We started with a big cockpit that would be comfortable and ease the task of managing the boat. We wanted a better balance between spaces on deck and below." He hit his mark with this beauty. So easy to handle and experienced sailor can solo or a couple can easily cruise to all their dream destinations. The cabin boasts a huge galley, to large heads, to private cabins along with two additional berths in the salon, a nav station and plenty of room to stretch out and relax.

Saga 43 information

Taking the lead from the shorthanded offshore racing fleets like Whitbread and BOC around the world races, Saga has opted to maximize waterline length to gain the desired interior space, and to pare weight judiciously while retaining a relatively narrow beam. The hull has an ultra-fine entry angle with low drag, and is therefore very easily driven through the water and chop with far less sail area required. . The Saga 43's longer waterline length translates to higher speeds under both power and sail. The Saga 43 performs more like a 50 footer with a dynamic waterline length of over 41 ft. when underway.

The Saga 43 rig is also heavily BOC influenced and optimized for shorthanded crews. Neither a cutter nor a sloop in the usual sense, the Saga 43 rig has tandem roller furling units for the headsails. The rig is proportioned so that it does not require overlapping headsails for power when sailing close-hauled. The inner furler handles the self-tacking jib for windward work.
