42' Catalina 42 MKI

Google Blue Yonder Yachts for full listing details and photo gallery.

SeaEsta X features the coveted 3-cabin layout with the shoal draft wing keel option, allowing you to cruise in areas restricted to deeper-draft boats. The Catalina 42 MKI is a charming boat that offers solid performance, excellent accommodations, and good value for sailors looking for a cruiser or club racer in this size range.

SeaEsta X has been lovingly maintained and will make you feel at home from the moment you step aboard and into its attractive, solidly built interior. Highlights include teak-and-holly sole, ample living space, ultra-spacious salon with adjoining galley amidships, large dinette seating 6-8 adults, a Pullman-style owners stateroom with private head/shower, and two mirror-image aft cabins with reading lights and hanging lockers. The boat is well ventilated and lighted by Lewmar hatches and fixed portlights located in all living areas and in the heads.

Cruisers will love how well-kept and upgraded SeaEsta X is, with all systems and mechanical equipment in good working order. Upgrades include: new AGM house and start batteries (2025), new full boat covers (2025), new stainless steel in cockpit (2020) for new full cockpit covers (2020), new smart battery charger (2025), new refrigeration unit (2024), and new bottom paint (2025). Owners keep a tight maintenance schedule, including annual rigging inspections and diligent upkeep of engine, sails, and other systems.

The clean understated lines of the Catalina 42 means it will never go out of style. The original hull was based on a Nelson Merek racing design, and the boat can attain 8 knots off the wind without surfing and 7 knots upwind. It is one of the best cruising sailboats of its type ever produced in North America and represents excellent value.
