The Belize was launched in 2000, as a successor to the Vénézia 42, and can be distinguished from its predecessor by its more modern design and ergonomics as well as its improved performance; 130 boats have been built. The Maestro is the owner’s version and its success gave us the chance to have another look at this boat, in a version which is most definitely oriented towards blue-water cruising and living aboard. The Belize 43 is an extremely efficient sailing catamaran and one of the fastest in her class. Every navigational aspect has been optimized: the helm station protected by a fixed plexiglass screen, access to the gangways, underdeck stowage of halyards, direct anchorage and more.

Architect Olivier Flahault has succeeded in maximizing space and storage capacity, making it comfortable and eminently practical for long-term cruising.

What it does cover is the cockpit and deck, and that is where a cruising catamaran earns its keep. Cockpit and deck The tour highlights a generous cockpit with double seats and cushions throughout, plus clear plastic covers and sunscreen panels that can be rigged all the way around — sunshades up in the heat, rain covers up in a downpour.…
