Comfort and control rule the day on the R-43 CB. You’ll feel confident cruising in all conditions with the R-43 CB’s powerful and reliable twin Volvo Penta IPS450 drives. Joystick docking from the helm, aft joystick station, or command bridge keeps docking fun and stress-free. You’ll know exactly where you’re at and where you’re going with the state-of-the-art Garmin navigation suite featuring a 22” chartplotter with sonar, AIS receiving & transmitting, GMR Fantom 24 radar, and autopilot. You can add even more control with optional gyroscope stabilization, FLIR thermal imaging, and Dynamic Positioning.

The spacious, light-filled salon is the heart of the R-43 CB. With a conversational layout and seating for 12, you’ll make a lifetime’s worth of memories with friends and family in this warm, inviting space. When it’s time to retire for the evening or just retreat from the action of the day, you’ll find solace in the large, private master stateroom with spacious, heated head. The R-43 CB’s master stateroom is roomy and functional. You can keep up to date with work or family communications at the desk or just relax with a book on the leather lounge seat. The queen-sized island bed with nearby reading lights and USB charging ports will quickly become one of your favorite places on the R-43 CB.

The spacious, private aft stateroom on the R-43 CB will ensure that your guests remain comfortable during their stay. The en-suite head in the aft stateroom has a shower, electric marine toilet, vanity and plenty of storage. With multiple hull-side windows, your guests can gaze across the water or relax by watching a movie on the flatscreen TV/DVD player. The aft stateroom has two sleeping configurations to accommodate single beds or a spacious queen size berth.

Among many things, the R-43 CB is about comfort, seaworthiness, and having fun! With amenities like a full-size washer and dryer, a spacious galley equipped with a 3-burner stove and oven with broiler, double basin sink, microwave, three refrigerators, butcher block and abundant drawers, cabinets, and pantry storage, you can live and entertain just like you would at home. You’ll love the large cockpit, with transom seats that rotate open presenting a pass-through to the oversized swim step. The hard top with integrated LED lighting allows for entertaining or relaxing in all weather conditions by keeping you protected from sun and rain. A large opening glass bulkhead keeps the cockpit and galley spaces connected and intimate. You’ll never have to worry about keeping drinks cold and fresh thanks to the built-in stainless-steel ice maker.

The R-43 CB features a 205 square foot command bridge which is accessed via staircase with handrail. The expansive command bridge allows you to host and play outside while never feeling crowded. Nothing beats the beauty and comfort of cruising from the command bridge on the R-43 CB.
