1977 Camper & Nicholsons 42 Ketch

This 1977 Camper & Nicholsons 42 Ketch represents a classic example of British yacht design and construction. The fiberglass hull is built to withstand demanding conditions, while the ketch rig delivers balanced performance under sail with good responsiveness across a range of wind conditions. The yacht features a deep cockpit for crew safety and a well-proportioned deck layout that supports smooth movement throughout.

Below deck, the interior combines warm teak woodwork with practical design. The two cabins provide comfortable sleeping quarters, while two heads serve the accommodation. A bright saloon and galley offer generous living space for a cruising yacht of this size, making extended passages feasible with family or crew.

The yacht is powered by a single Perkins diesel engine, a reliable workhorse for auxiliary propulsion and maneuvering. At 42 feet 6 inches long with a beam of just over 12 feet, the Mod 42 balances seaworthiness with the handling characteristics valued by sailors seeking classic offshore capability.
