Description

A beautifully upgraded, light-filled cruising yacht prepared for adventure

Atlas stands out as an exceptional example of the popular Jeanneau 43 Deck Salon, known for its bright interior, comfortable layout, and balanced performance under sail. Designed by Daniel Andrieu, the 43DS blends the elegance of a raised deck salon with the capability and confidence of a true offshore cruiser. Atlas elevates this proven design even further with extensive upgrades, structural improvements, and modern systems that make her a turn-key choice for sailors ready to explore with comfort and independence.

Significant structural enhancements provide peace of mind rarely found in vessels of this age. The keel bedding and bolts have been fully re-done, and the mast step has been professionally rebuilt and resealed—major investments that ensure long-term integrity. The hot water system has been upgraded to an 11-gallon tank, and a new battery bank supports an impressive array of power systems designed for extended time at anchor.

Energy independence is a defining feature of Atlas. Her 650-watt solar array, SilentWind 400 Plus wind generator, and Outback energy management system—including a 2000-watt inverter/charger, FlexMax 80 solar regulators, remote interface, and NEMO 50 battery charger—provide efficient, reliable power. Dual 220v and 110v AC systems, LED lighting throughout, and multiple USB charging ports make life onboard both practical and modern.

Cruising amenities add to her appeal. A custom Spectra 12v watermaker and 140 gallons of freshwater capacity allow for self-sufficient voyaging, while a saltwater galley faucet conserves fresh water. On deck, a custom davit arch, oversized Mantus anchor with 300 feet of galvanized chain, and a new 2023 windlass offer robust handling and security.

Her full Garmin electronics suite includes chartplotter, autopilot, radar, forward-looking sonar, AIS transmitter, and hard-wired wind instrumentation, delivering comprehensive navigation capability. Comfort features include a gimbaled ENO 4-burner stove, large refrigeration, Sunbrella cockpit cushions, Hella fans, upgraded entertainment, and two electric Raritan toilets.

Thoughtfully modernized and exceptionally equipped, Atlas is a rare opportunity for any sailor seeking a dependable, ready-to-cruise Jeanneau 43DS.
