Gibert Marine boats for sale

Founded in France in 1972, Gibert Marine specialized in crafting sailing yachts primarily tailored for long-distance racing. Initially, the Gib’sea brand was one of the shipyard’s lines, but its growing popularity led to the establishment of a separate brand. In 1996, Gibert Marine, along with the Gib’sea brand, was acquired by another French shipyard, Dufour. Despite a brief pause in production under the new ownership, construction of Gib’sea sailing ships resumed in 1999. However, production under the Gib’sea brand has since ceased. Nevertheless, Gib’sea boats have left a lasting legacy in the realm of long-distance racing, remaining highly sought after by sailors, even today, for their historical significance and performance prowess.
