How many cabins can you fit on a 43-foot boat - two or three? The owner of the new Sealine C430 has to ask himself this question. The standard layout has an owner's cabin amidships and a VIP cabin in the bow. In the three-cabin version, the master cabin moves to the bow and two guest cabins are accommodated in the centre.
Socialising takes place in the saloon with its huge glass roof and floor-to-ceiling windows or in the two outdoor lounge areas. The saloon and cockpit can be transformed into a huge galley, because when you open the large rear doors, the galley is right in the centre.
In the age of digitalisation, it is hardly surprising that the shipyard relies on monitors, touchscreens and operation via tablets for its C430. For propulsion, Sealine relies exclusively on Volvo's IPS systems (IPS 400, 500 or 600), which guarantee safe manoeuvring and sailing and accelerate the yacht up to a maximum of 33 knots.
