The Comfortina 42 was introduced in the end of the 1990s. It was designed by Thomas Bern and built by Comfortbåtar AB in Sweden. Since 2013, the production of Comfortina yachts has been moved to Comfortina GmbH in Germany.
The C42 is a fast, good looking and very comfortable yacht. It is a designed to offer good sea going capabilities, it has modest free boards and a sleek coach roof. It is well known amongst sailors being a dream to sail, especially when going upwind. The solid construction and a layout including great space for storage makes Comfortina 42 an excellent yacht for island hopping as well as for blue water cruising.
Going down the companionway, you arrive in a large, open space with chart table and heads to starboard and galley to port. The owner’s cabin is located in the forward part of the yacht, offering a double berth, a seat, storage and ensuite heads / shower. A traditional saloon with two sofas and a foldable table, an aft cabin to port with double berth and an aft cabin to starboard which can be used for sleeping 1-2 persons or as a huge storage cabin.
This Comfortina 42 BLUE WAVE was delivered in 2006 to its current (first) owners. BLUE WAVE has had a good life. She has always been serviced and maintained by Vindö Marin, where she also has been stored, in a tempered hall, between August-June since new. In 2020 BLUE WAVE got a new furling mast (instead of the original standard mast), new standing and running rigging as well as new sails. The new mast, together with the self-tacking jib and electric winches makes sails handling easy and efficient for a short-handed crew. BLUE WAVE is equipped with both a bow thruster and a stern thruster which makes docking in tight spaces a piece of cake. Having only been in the water for about 3 month per year and being lightly used for some weeks in the summer, I would be surprised if there is any other Comfortina 42 being in such an excellent condition…
