The Catalina 42 is a proven cruising design known for delivering spacious accommodations, handling ease, and practical performance in a manageable package. Jolly Mon is a well-maintained example of this platform, featuring a shoal draft of 4 feet 10 inches that opens access to shallow cruising grounds. The hull is fiberglass, powered by a Yanmar 4JH2E diesel engine with approximately 2,200 hours on the gauge.
The interior is organized across two cabins and two heads, with 6 feet 8 inches of headroom throughout. The generous 13-foot 10-inch beam creates an expansive salon and provides the interior volume that distinguishes this model at its size. Layout and volume work together to support both short-term cruising and longer-term liveaboard arrangements.
The boat carries practical upgrades for extended time away from the dock: solar panels and a wind generator supplement the onboard systems. Air conditioning is installed for dockside comfort. The sail plan is straightforward and efficient, equipped with lazy jacks and a mainsail cover. A bimini and cockpit cover provide weather protection in the helm area.
