09/2008 –

For the new season, Sessa Marine presents an elegant new 43 foot boat which is sure to become a reference on the market.

Calling and improving on the characteristics of its big brother the C46, highly successful in 2007, the C43 offers a perfect balance between carefully chosen design and high technology.

The Cannes and Genoa boat shows will be the setting for the C43 preview presentation, alongside three other new products: Key Largo 24, Key Largo 30 and the new version of the C52 800HP.

DESIGN: the Sessa Marine stamp
For this project, Sessa Marine has once again entrusted the interpretation of its stylistic philosophy to the designer Christian Grande, who has signed here a first-rate concept, in the tradition of the new range developed by the site since last season.

An elegant design which leaves nothing to chance: bands and stops underline the contours of the structure and reveal the strength of the hull.

Inside, each detail is finely crafted to create an atmosphere which is both modern and uncluttered but also mellow and welcoming. A successful choice of materials and colours provides a play on contrasts and allows the boat’s interior to be visualised in a different manner. Sessa Marine thus reinvents marine interior design, giving each view a 3D dimension.

In this spirit, the lounge and galley present a play of colours and materials which create a unique, modern atmosphere: textured leathers on black lacquered wood or walnut, as well as velvet partitions enhanced by fetching steel pieces.

A layout governed by ingenuity
To retain among the strong points of the layout:

• a significant effort to render the boat spacious and luminous, notably thanks to the large glass openings on the side to light the owner’s cabin, and the electric Hard Top’s generous opening;
• entertainment accessories such as loud-speakers and holders integrated into the trim, to take full advantage of the outside space;
• at the heart of the cockpit, the sun lounge and well-equipped bar make for enjoyable afternoons.

A seductive contemporary character for the outside trim with its tones of cream and chocolate.

The C43 offers two spacious cabins, each with its own private bathroom. The VIP is fitted with a double bed which can be converted into two twin beds.

New IPS motorization
This 13,20m model is available with two engine possibilities: 2 x IPS 500 or the two VOLVO PENTA D6 370 HP .

The series version is “customizable” thanks to a wide range of options such as the teak deck, the generator or the entertainment and galley layout equipment.

“We wanted to create a boat that would highlight the style and philosophy of the C46, which received an excellent response at last year’s shows, and this time, for the 40 foot sector which today represents a very important part of the European market” – states Massimo Radice, Sessa Marine vice-president – “We especially wanted to offer a considerable level of quality and style, as always at Sessa Marine, all the while ensuring a competitive retail price. We are convinced that the C43 will become a reference in its category.”
