42' Michel Francqueville Custom made

Well sell to highest offer due to unforseen family circumstances. Back on the market as of May, 2026. "Fast 42." Custom made catamaran designed by French Naval Architect Michel Francqueville. No hurricane damage and never chartered. It just spent 3 years on the dry in Aruba where it was treated with multiple layers of copper coat. As far as I know it is the only one built of this size. Composite build out of fiberglass, airex foam, and wood. Comes with a main, a jib, and an asymmetrical spinnaker. Has autopilot, depth finder, radar, etc... I am in the process of updating the chart plotter and the wind vane. Just installed 2 new 650 W solar panels and 3 Victron Lithium batteries, 1.2 kw each. Has a 7 kw Northern Lights diesel generator as well. Comes with a 2012, gasoline, outboard Yamaha 90HP with about 650 hrs on it. It is very fuel efficient! It also has a bow thruster to maneuver in tight spaces. Comes with a 2015 aluminum/inflatable dinghy with an 8 HP outboard Yamaha, which I don't give value too, it comes for free. It was built in 1987 and it feels solid under your feet and while navigating. Currently has a freezer, refrigerator, microwave, gas stove, a barbecue grill, etc... Perfect for cruising. Inside, one will find 4 cabins with large beds for at least 2 people each. It has a full head in the captain cabin, a full head in the port hull, and an extra sink in one of the cabins. Mast clearance is approx 55 feet. The sailboat has daggerboards, therefore once retracted the boat is flat on its bottom, up until the rudders, which create a 4 feet draft. When under sail one completely lifts the engine out of the water, eliminating drag. Anchor with electric winch and 2 extra anchors. There is plenty of storage and it comes ready to cruise.
