This 1996 Silverton 442 Cockpit Motor Yacht combines the extended cruising capability the model is known for with a thoughtful ownership history and significant mechanical updates. Powered by twin Crusader 502XL engines producing 760 horsepower, the 46-foot fiberglass hull offers effective length pushing 50 feet with a wide, usable beam. The boat has been freshwater-maintained and has completed the Great Loop with consistent care and documented maintenance.
Recent and ongoing mechanical work includes transmissions rebuilt approximately three years ago, a driveline refresh completed last year with new shafts, bearings, seals, and cutlass bearings, and ongoing service keeping systems current. The exterior has been wet sanded, compounded, and polished for strong presentation. Upgrades include an extensive stereo system, updated aft deck soft goods with new upholstery and SeaDek-style flooring, an enclosed aft deck with full isinglass, and new ground tackle.
The layout centers on a full-beam aft master stateroom with direct cockpit-level access via sliding door—a practical feature unique to this boat. The lower cockpit and extended swim platform simplify boarding and water access. An upper covered aft deck includes a wet bar and ample seating. Inside, the salon provides bright, open living space with abundant storage throughout, making the boat well-suited for extended cruising or liveaboard use. Two heads serve the accommodations.
