At 43 feet, she is the smallest hull in this range, and she still runs rings round boats twice her length. Speed sells a performance console, but it is the balance between raw pace and quiet efficiency that gives the Midnight Express 43′ Open her edge: 35 knots at cruise, 60 at the top end, and a 400 nautical mile range that beats both her Solstice sister and the larger 52′ Vitesse. That range is no accident. A 1,500 litre tank and a lean GRP planing hull mean she covers more sea for less fuel, while a draught of just 0.9 metres opens up shallow anchorages a deeper hulled yacht would have to avoid. Designed, engineered and built entirely in-house, she carries two cabins and sleeps four, with day space for ten. For an owner who wants genuine open water pace without giving up the ability to slip into a quiet cove, the 43′ Open earns her name.

Performance

Sixty knots at the top, thirty five at cruise. For 43 feet, that is serious pace.

Mercury Racing 450R power comes as standard, with a Quad Mercury Verado 400 or Triple Mercury Verado 600 package available for owners who want to tune the balance between acceleration and efficiency further. The planing GRP hull is built light, and it shows in the numbers: a 1,500 litre fuel load still returns a 400 nautical mile range, the longest of any model in this range. A shallow 0.9 metre draught adds agility inshore, letting her reach water that would strand a deeper keeled boat, while keeping the ride composed at speed.

Design & Lines

Her lines are drawn for one purpose: to cut through water cleanly at speed.

The hull carries a planing configuration shaped for stability as much as velocity, with a profile that stays taut rather than ornamental. Midnight Express designs, engineers and builds the 43′ Open entirely in-house, a continuity that shows in how closely the exterior styling matches the performance beneath it. Nothing about the silhouette is accidental: every surface is there to reduce drag, manage spray or add a handhold at speed. It is a look built from function first, with the aesthetics following naturally from that discipline.

Interior & Accommodation

Below deck, she trades scale for purpose. Two cabins, four berths, and nothing wasted.

The accommodation is compact by design, suited to an owner who uses this yacht for day running and the occasional overnight rather than extended cruising. Two well appointed cabins sleep up to four guests comfortably, with a single crew member able to run the boat and look after guests without needing a larger complement. It is a layout that keeps the emphasis where it belongs on a boat like this: performance and deck life, with comfortable, uncomplicated accommodation below when the day is done.

On Board

The deck is where the 43′ Open does her entertaining, and there is space for ten to enjoy it.

Open plan seating and lounging areas run the length of the cockpit, designed for groups who want to socialise at anchor as readily as they run offshore. The layout favours easy movement between helm, seating and swim platform, with sightlines kept open so no one feels shut away from the water. It is a deck built around the way owners actually use a fast open console: short runs, long lunches, and an afternoon spent moving between sun and shade rather than fixed in one spot.

Ownership & Specification

A compact footprint with genuine range. The 43′ Open asks little and delivers plenty.

She measures 13.1 metres overall on a 3.7 metre beam, with a 0.9 metre draught that keeps her flexible across cruising grounds. Built, engineered and finished entirely in-house by Midnight Express, she carries two cabins for four sleeping guests, day space for ten, and runs comfortably with a single crew member. For an owner moving between performance boating and family use, the 43′ Open offers a smaller, more efficient entry point into the range without asking for a compromise on pace.
