Gibert Marine was founded in 1972, initially
as a builder of small keelboats. They soon progressed to being
a major builder of cruising-orientated yachts. Gib'Seas have
always featured simply fitted but very practical interiors,
on well built hulls.
By the mid 1990s the company was struggling to compete as
an independent builder with the larger and more highly automated
productions of Beneteau, and Gibert Marine were taken over
by Dufour, who continued to produce a range of yachts under
the Gib'Sea name - for a while Dufour used the Gib'Sea brand as their lower cost range.
The Gib'Sea 352 was designed in 1988 by Michel Joubert and
Bernard Nivelt, as a replacement model for the earlier Gib'Sea
105/106 design. The 352 remained in production for about five
years. There were two interior options, a "Master"
version with a single large aft cabin, and two keel options,
shallow at 4 ft or deeper at 5' 7". The example illustrated in the interior photos
is the "Master" version.
