Onboard, a walkway protected by high bulwarks gives access to all areas. Forward, the large bow sundeck can be converted into a chaise lounge come cocktail hour. Amidships, the spacious dinette is equipped with folding tables that can be set up for dinner parties or tucked away when not in use. You can also opt to add two collapsible side terraces to this deck to create more space and connection to the sea.
To the aft, the teak-covered swim platform can be fitted with a hydraulic system that helps with launching tenders and toys. Speaking of which, the garage is big enough to hold a tender of nearly seven feet. Also at the rear lie a pair of 440 hp Volvo Penta D6 sterndrive engines.
Inside, meanwhile, the open-plan living area sports rotating U-shaped sofas that can transform into a comfy double bed on demand. To the aft is a cabin with separate beds and a large bathroom with a separate shower. Invictus says the generous bulwarks resulted in “remarkable internal heights,” so the interior feels light and airy.
The first unit of the new TT420 was finished in the yard’s signature “Personal White,” though both the TT420 and the TT460 will later be available in a new “Vogue White” hue. According to Invictus, this represents the yard’s ability to always deliver a unique interpretation of even a “simple” color. Hear, hear.

A BOW MADE FOR AL FRESCO LIVING
The asymmetrical split-level layout of the bow is designed to maximize space for outdoor living. Up top is an ample cushioned sunbathing area while just below is a versatile al fresco lounge-come-dining zone with a six-person table surrounded by an inviting C-shaped divan.
WAVE WATCHING
The helm area is flanked by windows in the hull that sweep up to gunwale level, creating a visual connection with the exterior environment. This exciting design feature also places the pilot right amongst the action, in the heart of the wake at high speeds, with water rushing by on either side almost as though it were part of the boat’s structure.
VERSATILITY AT ITS UTMOST
The galley is fitted out with a fridge, washing machine, cooktop and plenty of storage. The dinette can be easily converted into a comfortable double bed, sectioned off from the galley by a curtain.
A COMFORT-CENTRIC PHILOSOPHY
The full-size bathroom has a separate closable shower. A generous window allows natural light to illuminate it.
OUR ADVANCED TOOLKIT
The high-performance patented Stepped ‘V’ Ventilated Tunnel (SVVT) was developed by Michael Peters and incorporates a classic deep ‘V’ hull with two transverse steps and a central tunnel aft. It is this latter feature that sets it apart from other current stepped deep ‘V’s, with its shallow aft central tunnel increasing the longitudinal stability of the boat in high speed turns and adverse situations. The use of the SVVT hull on the Verve 42 represents the merging of cutting-edge hull forms with advanced outboard engine power and avant-garde concept design and styling. The combination of technologies culminates in a boat that boasts unmatchable performance, manoeuvrability and speed in its class and represents the largest and grandest SVVT pleasure boat available on the market.
Azimut’s pioneering use of carbon fiber lamination goes beyond pure performance. The Carbon Tech Generation offers expanded volumes onboard, while maintaining excellent dynamic stability and perfect handling. Preserving the yacht’s low center of gravity, the carbon fiber was focused on the upper parts of the yacht, lightening the laminated components by up to 30% and reducing the natural roll momentum up to 15%.
The Verve 42 can reach a top speed of 43 knots and cruises at 32 knots with three 400 hp Mercury outboard engines. It’s the ideal propulsion for dynamic and sporty yachts, such as the new Verve 42, with an unbeatable weight-to-power ratio. The pilot feels effortlessly in command with smooth handling and responsive controls. Low displacement is another important design objective accomplished thanks to this advanced solution.

She is the only catamaran yacht in her class to offer such space and volume in an owner's hull, with her ensuite including a true walk-in shower.
Easy to manoeuvre on your own or with a small crew
The Astréa 42 makes the most of her size to offer an unprecedented level of comfort
When the Fountaine Pajot teams designed this yacht , their objective was clear: to offer the best combination of aesthetics, comfort and seaworthiness in a 42-foot catamaran . The result has exceeded expectations. Not only is her sleek silhouette easy on the eye, but the Astréa 42 is packed with features and fittings that you would typically only find on much larger catamarans . However, at 12.58 metres, she is still very easy to handle, and whoever takes the helm experiences a true connection with the boat while being right next to the sundeck where guests can keep them company. Time to head out to sea!

Our dealers are at your disposal to guide you in your choice of fittings, packages and options to best suit your boat purchase project . You can find out the starting price of the catamaran of your choice on this page HERE .
Innovative, high-tech composite materials constitute most of the structure of our sailing catamarans: hulls, flybridge, decks, bulkheads and more. Fountaine Pajot has perfected a resin injection and infusion technique, an advanced technology that gives our boats all their robustness. Thanks to this expertise, we can make our catamarans considerably lighter while maintaining consistent quality . Injection also makes it possible to meet the most stringent environmental requirements, in line with the commitments of the Fountaine Pajot Group.
Sailing catamarans from 40 to 50 feet are built at the Aigrefeuille headquarters, a few kilometres from La Rochelle. Catamaran yachts from 51 to 80 feet are built in La Rochelle, France, where they benefit from a slipway.
It is essential to define your sailing program: define the size of the crew on board, the level of sailing knowledge, the sailing project and the target sailing area. Every project is different. Whether you want to enjoy a large Owner’s suite, invite many friends and family on board, or telecommute during your voyage, the Fountaine Pajot cruising catamarans can be adapted to suit your needs. Benefit from reliable, seaworthy and spacious catamarans! Find out more about our Owners’ testimonials here
The ergonomics of Fountaine Pajot catamarans have been designed to facilitate manoeuvring at the helm, enabling a small crew (2 persons) to manoeuvre the boat easily, both in port and at sea. The unique design of the helm station allows good communication between the aft cockpit and the Fly relaxation areas. Of course, your level of navigation will determine your ability to sail with two or more persons!
Our electric catamarans now feature a large surface area of solar panels, up to 2000 WC, perfectly integrated into the design of the coachroof. Combined with equipment such as wind turbines or hydro-generators, they compensate for the energy consumption generated by on-board use during cruising. Discover the benefits of the Smart Electric solution with 4 real-life cruise scenarios
The Fountaine Pajot range of electric catamarans is expanding, and now includes 3 Smart Electric models. The Astréa 42, Elba 45 and Aura 51 are now available in this version.
With the help of over 70 engineers, Fountaine Pajot has developed an in-house solution, 100% adapted to the use of its catamarans equipped with hybrid electric motors . All on-board production and energy expenditure flows are managed from a single console designed by our teams to offer a simple, designer user experience.

42ft Catamaran Models Comparisons
We compare the specifications, dimensions, sail area, and pricing on the most popular 42ft catamarans in 2020. The Lagoon 42 , Bali 4.2 , FP Astrea 42 , and Leopard 42 are within a similar price range and dimensions, but there are major differences. Let’s compare apples to apples to see how the match up.

Compare 42ft Catamaran Interior Features
- The Bali 4.2 has all the popular and successful trademarks expected of the Bali catamaran range. It has the huge open platform which provides a convertible indoor/outdoor living space using tilting “garage door” that lifts up into the ceiling. The convertible door is a unique feature on the Bali. When open, it look like a much bigger catamaran. The Bali 4.2 also features a door in the front of the salon that opens up onto the expansive forward cockpit. With the 4.2 Bali has adopted the newer trend of “Jack & Jill” bathrooms in the 4-cabin version which creates more space in the cabins. The big American-style refrigerator is another popular feature especially for families and liveaboards.
- The Lagoon 42 is one of the most popular models for cruising couples. She is a beefy and a very comfortable liveaboard catamaran with an oversized cockpit. The mast is centered in the salon which could be a deal breaker for some, but considering how many L42s we have sold, it does not seem to bother the people who own and adore them. The galley lacks storage, but there is space available to add cabinets and baskets. The cabins are ample with island beds and plenty of storage, particularly the owner’s cabin. It features the “Jack & Jill” bathrooms in the 4-cabin version, a great use of space.
- The Leopard 42 features all the popular and successful trademarks of the hugely successful Leopard 50. Like its big sister, it features the opening door to an intimate forward cockpit. The semi-raised helm station and “upper lounge area” is a very well done and a great feature for cruisers. It is luxuriously finished and all bunks are island berths that allow access from both sides. The forward-facing galley is well-designed.
- The Fountaine Pajot Astréa 42 is plush and comfortable catamaran with a well-appointed galley and sliding doors that open the salon up to the very big cockpit. The cabins are a nicely sized and spacious with island beds.
For more information, price lists, specifications, or available programs, contact us to let us know what boat you are looking for
What are your thoughts?
The Bali 4.2 and Leopard 42 models are brand new and not actually built yet while the Lagoon 42 and FP Astrea 42 models have been around for a few years now and both are very popular models for cruising couples. So how will the two newbies stack up?

4 thoughts on “42ft Catamaran Models Comparisons”
I have two specs that I would like to see on all four of these. The first is holding tank capacity. I find the holding tank capacity on most boats insufficient for live aboards. The other is air draft. The 42 foot and below range are ones that in the Southern US we have bridge anxiety. I would like to know if any of these have an ICW friendly mast option and what the height is.
Jay thank you for the comments! They are all good questions. We will have a good spec sheet and hopefully all the answers you may have during our Zoom Bali discussion on August 27th. Join our newsletter to receive a notice about the Zoom discussion in your mailbox.
Thanks for the comparison chart… It’s a great start!
In addition to Jay’s request… I would like to see some sort of price/performance/construction comparison too.
I’ve been a mono-hull sailor and live-aboard all of my life, but really am a novice with catamarans. I’m fairly familiar with the Leopard 44, having chartered them several times and really like them. I’m anxious to find out about what else is out there so I can make the best decision possible for my next boat. I’m really interested in a cat because I feel like I can sail a catamaran further into my later years then a mono hull.
Ron, I suggest you join the Bali Discussion if you can on the 27th of August [2020] on Zoom. Many of these questions will be answered during that discussion. As regards to your question about “price/performance/construction comparison” – I am not too sure what you want to know. I have added base prices in the comparison charts for all the models. The weight vs sail area (power) has some impact of course but for hulls of similar water length and hull shapes as these models have, performance for all four models will be similar, give or take a knot or so.

The All-New Aquila 42 Yacht Power Catamaran is Here
CLEARWATER, FL (February 10, 2023) – The all-new Aquila 42 Yacht Power Catamaran is here to redefine what it means to have fun on the water.
Jean Raas, Managing Director of Sino Eagle USA, comments, “The all-new Aquila 42 Yacht ticks off all boxes Aquila and our designers VPLP Design were looking to achieve on a smaller model. The aft cockpit area provides you with an exceptional entertainment area with best-in-class water and dock access. Our expansive flybridge provides you with plenty of seating for everyone to take in the view while underway or when sitting at your favorite anchorage spot. The interior amenities have endless storage options while at the same time providing you with spectacular views when you are in your cabin or when sitting at the salon table. It is a true offshore cruising yacht that has been built to the strictest CE Category A regulations while at the same time providing you with exceptional performance in all conditions.” The Aquila 42 Yacht offers two spacious staterooms with multiple configurations, a utility cabin, engine options from Volvo Penta, loads of storage, and comfortable spaces in the cockpit, flybridge, and foredeck. Whether you plan on long-distance cruising or entertaining at your favorite local destination, the 42 Yacht has you covered. The boat’s vinylester resin-infused hulls mean she is strong and light, while three sizable outdoor entertainment spaces leave plenty of room for guests. The 42 Yacht was designed by world-renowned power catamaran design firm VPLP Design. Lex Raas, President of Aquila Power Catamarans, comments, “Our International Aquila team worked with the famous French VPLP designers to bring this amazing power catamaran to the market, using CFD (Computer Fluid Dynamics) and FEA (Finite Element Analysis) to enhance the performance and comfort at sea. As well as partnering with European Chendal Anglay for a modern interior design. Incorporating our Aquila Yachts DNA of bulbs, walkway from the flybridge, opening aft bar, patented dinghy crane, patented swim ladder, largest panoramic cabin windows in class, and our standard CE Category A certification all culminating in a 42 ft power catamaran unrivaled in the world.” Alain Raas, Brand Manager, comments, “Dedicated design teams at VPLP Design and Sino Eagle Group have launched the all-new Aquila 42 Yacht. The amazing configurations available from a 2+ cabin base boat up to a 4-cabin version are sure to accommodate the robust needs of our clients searching for a layout that meets their requirements for their boating style whether it be private ownership or charter ownership. The stance and fluidity of the design have resulted in a boat that consists of sporty, clean & timeless lines. Underneath the water her hull design results in a great running boat that is extremely efficient. We are pleased to introduce the Aquila 42 Yacht to the world as we believe she will provide an amazing option for new boaters in the Yacht class range or those looking to downsize to a smaller functional boat that meets their boating needs. Be sure to learn more about the all-new Aquila 42 Yacht at any of our MarineMax stores in the USA or any of our international dealers throughout the world.” There will be no competition for a boat that is so incredibly versatile and thoughtfully designed.
