With the Oceanis 42, we are opening up a new chapter in the strategic 40-foot segment. As the successor of the Oceanis 40.1, this model represents a more refined and customisable generation, with a choice of five layout options.
The Oceanis 42 is opening a new chapter.
The synthesis of our French craftsmanship.
Naval Architect: Marc Lombard Yacht Design
Exterior & Interior Designer: NAUTA DESIGN
Exterior Design
The Nauta design firm has designed the proportions and circulation to create a true outdoor living space that is both structured and fluid.
At the aft, two configurations transform life on board:
In its open configuration, the platform becomes a natural extension of the cockpit. The sea is invited on board.
In the closed configuration, the aft seats create a more secure area that enables you to welcome more guests. This layout creates a new living space in the cockpit - especially while cruising - thanks to its additional seating close to the helmsman.
A convivial place at anchor. Makes navigation safer.
The helm stations benefit from the advanced features introduced on the Oceanis 47 and Oceanis 52: Integrated seats and backrests, ergonomic consoles incorporating all the controls, and a motor throttle integrated in the console. Every maneuver becomes intuitive; every setting becomes instinctive.
Interior Design
Natural light attracts the eye. Generous volumes. The atmosphere is elegant, contemporary, and sophisticated.
The interior upholstery is Premium, with three distinct styles: Ivory, sober and classic; Sunset, very cozy; Pacific, refreshing and timeless.
Always driven by attention to detail, the sand-colored oak finishes add a touch of warmth and modernity. The 2-mm-thick wood edges enhance the feeling of quality and sophistication to the touch. Every detail has been carefully crafted in order to create a sophisticated and timeless atmosphere.
The saloon is spacious, bright, and designed for welcoming guests. Facing it, a full-size desk structures the owner's area. We have also incorporated a bookshelf on the mast foot bulkhead, as well as a cabinet at the base of the companionway containing all of the boat’s electrical controls. This ensures clear and efficient organization of the onboard systems.
The Oceanis 42 is designed for a comfortable lifestyle on board.
Design
The Oceanis 42 redefines the modern 40-foot yacht and establishes herself as the benchmark: safe, convivial and smart.
