Shogun Yachts Shogun 43
About this yacht
The Shogun Yachts Shogun 43 represents a bold departure from conventional cruising design—a 13.10-metre performance cruiser engineered for sailors who refuse to compromise between speed and comfort. This yacht was conceived for doublehanded sailing at its finest. Dual electric pit winches on the cabin top eliminate the need for a full crew, while the innovative sail plan—with the mast positioned aft of the salon table—creates an expansive foretriangle that accommodates a 100% self-tacking jib. Multiple headsail options allow you to dial in precisely how much power you want, adapting to conditions, crew size, and your mood on any given day. Two distinct configurations cater to different sailing philosophies. The performance-oriented setup features running backstays, a square-top mainsail, and a 2.7-metre draft keel for sailors chasing the horizon at speed. The cruising configuration offers a conventional backstay, pinhead mainsail, and shallower 2.4-metre keel for relaxed passages and versatile anchoring. Both deliver commanding sail area that leaves other yachts trailing in your wake. The Shogun 43's construction pushes technical boundaries. Carbon fibre forms the hull, deck, rig, rudders, and structural interior components. Even the keel blade is carbon, concentrating weight in the bulb for enhanced righting moment. The hull-to-deck joint defies convention—rather than meeting at a traditional shear line, the hull sides wrap inward to fuse inside the deck at the cabin house, creating the yacht's signature smooth, flowing lines. This structural approach yields an unusually open interior. Forward bulkheads are divided to accommodate three aligned skylights above the centrally positioned salon table, flooding the space with natural light. The interior construction employs flax fibre laminate with a Divinycell core beneath wood veneer surfaces, chosen specifically for its acoustic properties—touch any surface and you'll notice the dampened, refined resonance that creates a remarkably quiet atmosphere below deck. Accommodation includes three double cabins: one forward and two aft. The L-shaped galley sits to port opposite a spacious head to starboard. Twin settees line the salon, backed by large portlights. Every surface can be customised—wood veneer finishes, synthetic fibre flooring, cushion fabrics in your preferred palette—allowing you to shape the yacht's aesthetic entirely to your vision. On deck, jib tracks mounted on the coachroof optimise trim angles without inhaulers. Optional secondary tracks on the side decks with floating inhaulers expand trim range, or you can specify deck-mounted padeyes for genoa and outboard sheeting. Halyard and control line organisers enable efficient sail management from either side of the cockpit. The Shogun Yachts Shogun 43 is a sailing yacht for those who demand both visceral performance and genuine comfort—a rare combination executed with uncompromising attention to detail.
