The Trireme 43 Ketch central cockpit is a Bluewater sailboat that was designed by the architect François Charpentier, known for many quality regatta and cruising sailboats.
Steel built in 1981by the Chantier Naval de Biot, France
Very popular with sailors wishing to make long voyages, cross the Atlantic or live on board. Robust construction designed for the high seas, good seaworthiness, spacious interior layout suitable for long sea travel.
