This 2003 Wesmac Flybridge is a 42-foot downeast cruiser built with solid fiberglass hull construction using vinylester resin throughout. The boat is powered by a single Caterpillar diesel engine rated at 800 horsepower, delivering reliable fuel economy and a cruising speed exceeding 20 knots with a fuel capacity of over 600 gallons. The hull features Duracore stringers and foam-cored bulkheads for strength and weight efficiency, with an 8-foot stainless steel shoe protecting the keel and skeg. Heavy-duty stainless steel reinforcement is fitted at the rub rails, quarter guards, stem, and transom corners.
The boat underwent a comprehensive refit at Wesmac in 2012 followed by consistent upgrades through 2025. Recent additions include a Seakeeper 6 gyrostabilizer, Simrad evo3s navigation displays (16-inch and 12-inch screens) paired with a 12-kilowatt radar system, a drop-in insulated fish hold, a Hamaguchi 35-foot greenstick, a hydraulic system with bandit reel, and Bluetooth remote autopilot control. Window coverings have also been installed.
Accommodations include one head. The boat's foam-cored decks, superstructure, and flybridge combine strength with weight savings, while the balsa-cored house and trunk roofs provide additional insulation. The construction and upgrade history reflect ongoing investment in the boat's capability and comfort for extended offshore operation.
