The Gib’Sea 84 blends spirited sailing performance with a cleverly designed interior, making her a superb choice for couples, families, or friends who want to enjoy comfortable cruising without stepping up to a much larger yacht. Designed by the respected Joubert-Nivelt team and built by Gibert Marine in France, she carries the hallmarks of the 1980s European cruising yachts – graceful lines, a well-balanced hull, and an interior that makes the most of every inch.
At just under 29 feet, she offers two private cabins, a bright and sociable saloon, a practical galley, and full standing headroom in the main living space. The deck layout is straightforward and easily managed, whether you’re sailing shorthanded or with crew, and her lively yet predictable handling inspires confidence at sea.
With her combination of space, style, and seaworthiness, the Gib’Sea 84 is equally at home coastal cruising, exploring further afield, or simply enjoying relaxed weekends afloat.
