1994 Hunter Passage

The 1994 Hunter Passage 42 is a center cockpit cruising yacht built to handle extended offshore passages. Its design prioritizes comfort and capability: a 42-foot length on a 14-foot beam, fiberglass hull with wing keel, and a Yamoto 4JH2TE diesel engine delivering 62 horsepower. The boat carries 70 gallons of fuel and 150 gallons of fresh water. A B&R masthead sloop rig with 949 square feet of sail area is rigged for short-handed operation, with roller furling jib, self-tailing winches, and all lines led aft to the protected center cockpit.

The layout below comprises two private staterooms and two heads. The forward cabin has a V-berth with an ensuite head and shower. The aft owner's cabin features a queen berth, an en-suite head with tub and shower, and full headroom at 6 feet 6 inches. The main salon combines an L-shaped settee with convertible dining; the galley is fully equipped with refrigerator, stove, and deep storage. Teak and holly sole runs throughout.

The deck is outfitted with a protected center cockpit, dodger, and bimini top. A walk-through transom provides access to a swim platform and boarding ladder. Solar panels are installed on the arch, reducing reliance on shore power. The boat has been actively cruised on Pacific Northwest waters.
