NYX 42C – cruising catamaran – where design meets freedom
The NYX 42C is not just any catamaran. It is a modern vision of life at sea, where design, smart engineering, and comfort come together to provide a smooth and natural cruising experience.
Designed in collaboration with Simonis Voogd, the NYX 42C stands out with its aerodynamic lines, sculpted volumes, and well-thought circulation between interior and exterior.
The retractable side terraces transform the aft cockpit into a true on-water lounge, opening the boat to the sea and multiplying living spaces. The spacious flybridge offers up to 65% more relaxation area compared to comparable units, with panoramic views ideal both underway and at anchor.
Built for modern, elegant, and hassle-free cruising, the NYX 42C is aimed at owners seeking freedom, comfort, and simplicity of use.

– Deployable aft terraces creating a large living space in contact with the sea
– Spacious, convivial, and seamlessly integrated flybridge
