This Beneteau First 42 is a large double-spreader sailing yacht that is well-equipped for cruising. The boat's standing rigging is substantial and shows little to no corrosion. Winches turned freely, the roller cars and tracks were clean, stanchions were sturdy and lifelines were in good shape. The deck was intact, overall, some crazing was noted on the starboard side of the cockpit, see photo. There is a canvas bimini which is showing some wear but is useable. The mainsail cover is in good shape. Both are blue. The boat's electrical system was updated with a new alternator, a solar controller-charger, and new batteries in 2021. Two 100-watt solar panels are included, they have not been mounted or used. One cabin sole section is soft from one of the water tanks overflowing on a long cruise. There was moisture or condensation visible from the forward deck hatch and a starboard window. Portholes were generally tight and in good condition. The VHF radio and autopilot were added in 2022. The boat runs great and sails like a dream, the owner confirms. The shaft seal will likely need to be serviced.
