DESCRIPTION:
The M42 grew out of the success of the M36, keeping the elegant simplicity and ease of single-handed daysailing and adding standing headroom and more amenities for coastal cruising. With her large cockpit and open interior layout she handles a group of friends and family sailing for the day. The addition of a head with shower, a real galley with stove and oven, and a comfortable queen berth makes her perfect for a couple or small family for overnights or more.
PACKET was built for a prominent sailor on the west coast and brought back east by her second (and current) owner to has continued to maintain her in excellent condition and has made some significant upgrades including a furling boom and new sails, as well as upgraded electronics. Currently hauled out for the winter at the Hinckley service yard in Southwest Harbor where she will be stored inside a heated building and made ready for the coming season.
