Sail · Day Cruiser · Custom Build
An elegant and extremely versatile cruise simply unmatched in performance,
comfort, and eaworthiness.
From deck layout to interior design, each semi custom Bruckmann 42 is tailored to the individual’s specifications. Let your imagination be your guide as you choose from an array of interiors ranging from traditional Hershoff style, to the classic warmth of richly varnished wood bulkheads and joinery. Match your choice of woods to whatever style of cabinetry catches your eye.
The Bruckmann 42 can be configured for both family and couples cruising, as the interior layout can be designed to accommodate your every need. You may wish to incorporate an additional cabin aft, a gourmet galley located midship, or just about anything else you can dream of. This flexible building approach affords the client the freedom of a custom yacht with the value of a quality series – production boat.
The Bruckmann 42 is fast and forgiving, yet not so large as to require an extensive crew to sail her. She provides outstanding sailing performance along with a safe comfortable disposition at sea, and is above all else, an able proven offshore passage maker. The Bruckmann 42 is a standout in any harbour and a testament to Bruckmann’s commitment to its clients.
