Bluewater Yachts 42 Coastal Cruiser

EDITOR NOTES: Slender lake and river cruiser is tough to beat when it comes to entertainment potential and liveaboard comforts. Offered with twin-stateroom or twin-head floorplans. Oversize cabin windows make the interior seem larger than it really is. Molded port and starboard steps lead up to a huge flybridge. Modest 23" draft permits unmatched shallow-water exploration. So-so finish, unimpressive workmanship. Standard 270hp gas engines cruise at 23–24 mph. Large windows and light displacement make this a poor choice for offshore cruising.
