1995 Post Convertible

Step aboard and you’ll feel how open and social this 43 is, with a salon that invites a crowd without feeling cramped. The cockpit has the right depth and beam for serious trolling, yet still leaves room for a couple of deck chairs when the rods are stowed. Up top, the sightlines from the bridge make docking approachable, even in tight marinas, and the ladder’s gentle angle is a welcome change from the near-vertical climbs on some convertibles. Underway, the deep hull shoulders aside a tight chop, and at trolling speeds she tracks straight without constant wheel corrections, making long days on the spread far less tiring.

This 43 convertible shines in waters where you’re splitting time between offshore runs and relaxed cruising along the shoreline. The hull form handles afternoon wind waves and confused inlet seas with confidence, yet her size still fits into typical marina slips and lift setups. Generous cockpit space and a solid fighting chair suit the local gamefish scene, while the comfortable two-stateroom layout works well for weekend getaways or overnight canyon trips. Efficient diesels offer a good blend of range and speed for longer runs between harbors, and the elevated bridge vantage point is ideal for spotting weed lines, birds, and traffic in busy, mixed-use waterways.
