Gunfleet 58 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for a Gunfleet 58 means looking at a 58-foot Tony Castro-designed cruiser built by Gunfleet Marine from 2013 onward, with most available examples coming off charter programs in two layout flavors. The boat's centerboard draft and hydraulic Solent rig make her a plausible short-handed world cruiser, but the used fleet carries the wear and refit history any production cruiser accumulates, and a viewing should focus on the details the design makes distinctive.
Layouts on the Used Market
Charter four-cabin layouts are the more common on the used market, but both are available; ex-charter examples are common. The standard arrangement pairs a large aft master with a walk-around berth and separate shower, a snug cabin to starboard of the engine room that the aft shower intrudes upon, and forward guest quarters with stacked berths and a centerline double. Charter versions simply multiply the cabin count without changing the beamy, raised-saloon character that gives the boat her volume.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Used 58s commonly carry a deep equipment list centered on autonomous cruising. Power and energy systems frequently include a watermaker, generator, inverter, and solar, alongside a bow thruster and central air conditioning that speak to Mediterranean summer use. Sail-handling gear commonly seen comprises electric winches, furling main, asymmetric spinnaker, and a short-handed setup that lets a couple manage the hydraulic furlers from the helms. Navigation and safety equipment typically bundles chartplotter, autopilot, AIS, radar, EPIRB, and life raft, while comfort items such as teak decks, washing machine, hot water, and cockpit shower round out the liveaboard picture.
What to Inspect
The one layout compromise to verify is the snug cabin beside the aft stateroom: the aft cabin shower stall intrudes into that cabin space, so measure headroom and berth length in person rather than trusting a listing photo, because a stacked-single fit can feel cramped. On deck, confirm the teak is glued rather than screwed and look for black staining at seams that would betray a failed bond and a leak path the design intended to avoid. Check the flush deck hatches for free-draining limber holes and test that the cabin hatch still lowers into its companionway cavity in all three positions. Below, inspect the watertight chain locker for any sign of moisture and exercise the centerboard to confirm it swings through its full 5'8" to 11'8" range without binding.
