The LD43 Proudly Stands Out among all the Downeast Yachts.  Her exterior is reminiscent of a lobster boat, with a flat roofline, lots of pilothouse windows, and a cockpit that can accommodate several picnickers.  Traditional accents, such as her curvy coach roof and teak accents, the grabrails on the pilothouse and foredeck, and rubrails, all pay homage to Oyster’s sailing heritage.  Severely raked side windows give the Oyster the aggressive look of a PT boat and truly a profile unlike any Downeaster you may ever see.

Walkthrough

Boarding from the swim platform, you enter through a 28-inch-wide transom door that collapses into a channel on the platform itself; this maintains the 43’s clean lines by doing away with a vertical swinging door and its irritating pins and latches.  A gas-assist strut holds it perfectly in place.

The LD in LD43 stands for “Lunch and Dinner,” and this Oyster is equipped for both, with cockpit (lunch) and saloon (dinner) dining areas.  Both are fitted with handsome folding teak tables to port and starboard that join in the middle to make one table.  The larger, saloon table is 42”L X 66”W, plenty of room for two couples. Butter-soft, cream-leather C-shape settees here contrast nicely with the teak-and-holly sole and teak interior, and they’re roomy enough to function as single berths.  Just forward of the settees are port- and starboard NorSap helm chairs, among the most comfortable and adjustable chairs you will find.

Down the centerline companionway to the forepeak stateroom with walkaround queen berth opens to reveal a large, 37” L x 53” W x 28” H stowage space.  Big enough to hold a pair of folding bicycles or a week’s worth of clothes for a cruising.  What you cannot fit here can go in the cedar-lined hanging locker and top-loading compartments to port and starboard.

The galley, to port, is equipped with a microwave/convection oven, two-burner cooktop, and stainless steel refrigerator/freezer.  Avonite countertops provide a nice contrast to the same grain-matched teak as the stateroom and cockpit, but stowage here is at a premium: For a cruising couple, the galley will provide enough stowage for a four-day weekend’s worth of provisions. The compartments above the countertop hold standard Wedgwood custom china, a classy but space-eating touch.

So much for comfort and tradition - when it comes to the technical part of the LD43 there is nothing old-fashioned about this Oyster. Twin 480hp Yanmar diesels are coupled to Hamilton water jets via a reverse/reduction gearbox, giving smooth power that is very much in keeping with the sophisticated style.

Access to the engines is brilliant: Each of the settees in the saloon hinges up under hydraulic power to present you with clear side access. If that is not enough, there are central hatches in the deck that allow access to all the daily checkpoints and generator. It might sound simple, but it has taken careful engineering to achieve what must be the best engine access I have ever seen.

In closing the Oyster LD43 combines traditional craftsmanship, with modern design and technology to create a unique blend of performance, seakeeping and comfort.  The latest composite construction with carbon fiber and Kevlar creates a very and strong light hull.  The LD43 is all about good times afloat, whether dining alfresco in the cockpit, having a candlelit dinner in the enclosed saloon or enjoying a cruise with family and friends.

“Thankful” offers everything you will want while onboard.  Incredible performance and maneuverability with twin water jets are at your fingertips!  The LD43 will easily top out at 30 plus knots, never having to worry about fouled props and the ability to go shallow or even dry out.  Your cruising options are literally endless!  Don’t miss one of the best options on the market!
