Pardo 43

Onboard the Pardo 43

The Pardo 43 pairs a low, walkaround deck with a cruising speed near 39 knots, built for guests who want to move around the boat rather than stay fixed on one bench. At 13.4 metres it takes up to 10 guests for a day on the water, with two cabins below for changing, storage, or a break out of the sun rather than an overnight programme. The uninterrupted side decks let guests step forward to the bow seating or aft to the swim platform without cutting through a crowded cockpit, useful when the group is shifting between sunbathing, swimming, and lunch on deck.

Based out of Saint-Tropez, the Pardo 43's speed suits the anchor field south of town, where a fast, low hull can reach a spot in the Gulf ahead of the busier mid-morning arrivals or reposition toward Pampelonne to sit off the beach clubs without a long transit. It also works for a shorter run toward Baie de Briande when a group wants open water and a quieter setting without committing to a full day offshore — the cruising speed keeps transit short and time in the water longer.

The layout and capacity suit a mixed group of friends, a family with older children, or a corporate lunch booking where guests want to stay together on deck rather than split between saloon and cockpit. Two cabins give enough privacy for a change of clothes or a short rest, without positioning the boat as a multi-day cruiser — this is a day-charter platform built around speed, open deck movement, and an easy return to port.
