~ John Kretschmer of Sailing Magazine writes….
“I confess, the 42 is one of my favorite Catalinas. It’s a handsome boat. The bow is raked just enough to give it a clean entry and still maintain a relatively long LWL of 36 feet. The hull flares quickly but the wide, 13-foot, 10-inch beam is nicely absorbed into the overall flow of the boat. The beam is carried well aft, providing space for double aft cabins and a roomy cockpit, yet it doesn’t seem excessive like many of today’s boats. It actually tapers a bit at the transom. Good design demands a sense of subtlety and that’s always been one of Douglas’ best attributes.”Email for more information… JEdwards@CurtisStokes.net
