2024 HCB 42 Lujo

The HCB 42 Lujo is a center console built around a newly designed hull and revised helm station, combining fishing capability with cruising comfort. Powered by triple Mercury Verado 600 engines, the boat runs on just 76 hours and remains under factory warranty. The design accommodates divers, cruisers, and anglers with dedicated features for each: dual fishboxes, three livewells, and outriggers for fishing; a Seakeeper 3 gyro stabilizer and comprehensive Garmin electronics package for cruising; and a dive door with tank storage in the lazarette for diving operations.

Accommodations include an air-conditioned cabin with berths and an enclosed head. The helm station features three captain's chairs upholstered in Bentley-stitched cockpit leather, with shadow gray ladder backs and a carbon fiber steering wheel. A 24-inch television is installed in the cabin.

The electronics suite is extensive: four Garmin displays (two 16-inch and two 12-inch screens), a 12kw open array radar, side scan sonar, AIS system, GSD 26 sounder with dual 1kw Airmar transducers, VHF radio, and autopilot. Entertainment includes a premium Garmin Fusion Apollo head unit with Sirius XM, and a JL Audio sound system with ten speakers and four subwoofers. Additional systems include FLIR night vision, a bow thruster, electric windlass with stainless steel anchor, and joystick control.

The boat features shadow gray hull sides and hardtop with matching engine cowlings. The cockpit includes custom Sea Deck flooring, retractable bow and aft seating with cushions, dual forward-mounted coolers, rigid brand coolers, six rocket launchers, dual freshwater rainshowers, underwater lighting fore and aft, and cablemaster. A retractable sunshade and aft windblocker provide weather protection.
