Wild Goose is a unique opportunity to purchase a proven Shannon 43 offshore cutter. She's been optimized to live aboard and to sail shorthanded. Her interior has been improved with an enlarged saloon and owner's cabin. Having been meticulously maintained with the sort of pride and care that a buyer will appreciate, the current owners have made substantial investments both aesthetically and mechanically including two major refits in 2012 and 2016.

Forward Cabin & Head

The enlarged master stateroom is forward with a large queen-size v-berth with custom Handcraft Queen+ mattress and an enclosed head and shower. Storage is plentiful with two drawers beneath the berth, a bank of drawers to starboard, port side hanging locker, and louvered cabinetry and bookshelves outboard. A vanity with Courian countertop and sink is opposite the ensuite head.

The original Shannon drop-leaf teak table has been replaced by a custom cocktail table with drop leaf but could easily be swapped.

The Shannon 43 hull was designed to deliver a yacht that would perform well in the various wind and sea conditions experienced by sailors cruising offshore. Wild Goose was purposefully designed to be a medium displacement yacht with mid-range length to displacement and area to displacement ratios to achieve the perfect balance between light air performance, comfortable accommodations, large tank capacity, and solid construction. The result is a safe passagemaking yacht that is swift and secure even in extreme conditions.

The Shannon 43 has a soft forward section, this reduces pounding and helps minimize crew fatigue. The well balanced aft sections further contributes to the smooth motion by providing efficient buoyancy to prevent an exhausting "seesawing" motion.

Wild Goose was constructed with a one piece hand laid fiberglass hull with closed-cell foam core and Kevlar reinforcement in critical areas such as the stem, chainplates, rudder post, builkhead attachments, and internal hull flange. Well known for their superior hull to deck joints, the Shannon 43 utilizes a substantial inboard flange along the top of the hull mold at the shear. This joint is bonded and thru-bolted every 8 inches.

The Shannon 43 has the most well designed cockpit of any boat in her class. Featuring cockpit seats long enough to stretch out and lay down on yet close enough to brace against when heeled over, and perfectly angled backrests that are much welcomed after significant time at sea. The helm offers unobstructed view and excellent protection from the rough seas while also providing accessibility to critical sailing instrumentation and autopilot controls.
