The Princess V42 is one of the best known sports yachts in production today, thanks to its legendary combination of style, pace and agility. The optional hardtop incorporates a large opening sunroof that combines the excitement of open boating with the flexibility of protection from the elements when required.
The generously proportioned cockpit features a spacious U-shaped seating area and teak table, together with a wetbar incorporating a sink, coolbox and optional barbecue. There is also a large sunbed above the dinghy garage which is accessed via the bathing platform which can be optionally fitted with a hydraulic raise/lower mechanism for easy launch and recovery. Additional seating for three alongside the dual helm makes for a truly sociable arrangement.
Below decks the accommodation is spacious, practical and elegant. The saloon and galley are substantial for her size with a high level of standard equipment. The U–shaped dinette can also convert into a double berth for additional overnight guests.
The forward owner's cabin has an en-suite bathroom with a spacious stall shower. The aft twin guest cabin, again with en-suite bathroom, is larger than usual for her class and can be fitted with optional sliding berths for great flexibility.
