Makai M42

An All-weather Cruiser

The Makai M42 presents interesting features for any boaters in search of a powercat that’s even more versatile than the M37. 

The new M42, available as a flybridge or sedan, will feature an enclosed saloon, guaranteeing comfort whatever the season. An optional hydraulic bathing platform provides stowage for a dinghy. As for the hull, it follows the proven design of the M37 - with longer hulls and foils to optimize performance and comfort under way. The standard powertrain is twin Yanmar 8LVs at 370 HP, though more powerful options will be offered by the shipyard.
