The Gib’Sea 106, introduced in the early 1980s, remains one of the most successful expressions of the collaboration between the French shipyard Gibert Marine and the renowned design firm JoubertNivelt. Designed as a robust cruiserracer for the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts, the 106 was intended to bridge the gap between pure performance hulls and the highvolume charter vessels that would soon dominate the market. It was an evolution of the earlier Gib’Sea 105, retaining that model's reputation for stiffness while adding more sophisticated interior ergonomics. With its distinct 1980s silhouette—characterized by a slightly reversed transom, a moderatetohigh freeboard, and a sleek coachroof—the 106 appealed to private owners looking for a "goanywhere" family cruiser that wouldn't lag behind in club racing.
