Shannon 43 Cutter
Portsmouth, Rhode Island, United States
An Ideal Cruiser with a Distinguished Pedigree
Glory is a rare opportunity to own one of the most notable offshore sailing vessels in her class. This 2001 Shannon 43 Cutter has logged over 36,000 nautical miles under an experienced ownership, including five transatlantic crossings and a voyage across the Pacific to the Galápagos and Tahiti. Despite her miles, she remains in good cosmetic and structural condition—a true testament to Shannon’s craftsmanship and the owner’s attention to detail.
Whether you’re preparing for your own adventure or seeking a vessel to cruise in comfort, Glory delivers performance, pedigree, and peace of mind.
Glory is layed up in storage in Portsmouth, RI and available for viewings by appointment.
