Description
This 42’ trawler stands out with the perfect balance of comfort, capability, and timeless design. With her solid hull form, full keel stability, and generous beam, she delivers a smooth, confident ride whether underway or at anchor.
Powered by twin Perkins diesels with low hours, she offers efficient cruising at 10 knots and the ability to reach 13 knots when called upon. A Westerbeke generator, dual helm stations, Bennett trim tabs, and hydraulic steering round out a well-equipped mechanical package designed for reliable coastal cruising.
Inside, the layout is designed with livability in mind. The aft master stateroom features an island berth and ensuite head with shower, while the forward guest stateroom offers bunks with a private head. The spacious salon flows into a U-shaped galley with solid counters, stainless sink, upright refrigerator/freezer, day fridge, icemaker, LPG stove/oven, and microwave, making it ideal for entertaining or extended stays aboard.
On deck, wide side walks, a large flybridge with seating, sundeck settees, and a robust Rocna anchor with all-chain rode and electric windlass make time outside as enjoyable as inside.
Whether it’s a weekend getaway to Catalina, a leisurely cruise along the San Diego coastline, or simply relaxing with friends at anchor on a warm evening, this 42’ trawler is perfectly suited for the Southern California lifestyle. She offers the comfort of home, the confidence of proven design, and the freedom to enjoy every adventure the coast has to offer.
