The Fjord 42 Open is an iconic sport yacht from the Fjord shipyard, renowned for its modern design, performance, and build quality. This 2018 model combines a Scandinavian minimalist style with high functionality, offering a boat that is both elegant and extremely enjoyable to use.
The fiberglass hull benefits from a high-performance planing keel allowing for high speeds while maintaining excellent stability at sea. With an overall length of 12.59 meters and a beam of 4.27 meters, the Fjord 42 offers impressive volumes for an open in this category.
The propulsion is provided by two Volvo Penta IPS500 engines each developing 370 horsepower. The IPS system improves maneuverability, fuel consumption, and navigation comfort. This system also allows precise docking and better hydrodynamic efficiency. The engines have a total of 3590 operating hours and enable the boat to reach an cruising speed of around 30 knots with a top speed close to 40 knots.
The exterior deck is one of the Fjord 42's highlights. Its fully open cockpit provides a generous living space with a large outdoor lounge equipped with an electric table. The hydraulic swim platform facilitates access to the sea and water activities. The rear sunshade also allows enjoying the cockpit in the shade on sunny days.
The electronic equipment is comprehensive, including a Raymarine radar, a 16-inch Raymarine multifunction display, VHF, and Raymarine AIS. The entire system offers safe navigation and excellent readability of information at sea.
Inside, the Fjord 42 offers a comfortable layout with a double cabin, a bathroom with WC, and a small equipped kitchenette. The boat also features a microwave and two recent drawer refrigerators installed in 2025.
