Description

The Moorings 42.3

An extra-large cockpit to make you feel at home

The Moorings 42.3 is a quintessential Bénéteau boat, built by a company with whom we have been working since the outset. Although this model is less than 43 feet long, they have managed to maximise the space outside while maintaining optimum comfort inside. Its wide-beamed, chined hull, designed by Marc Lombard, is sure to thrill sailing fans everywhere. And the luxurious interior, designed by Nauta Design in their own inimitable style, is fitted with the latest, premium materials.

The Moorings 42.3 features 3 cabins and 2 toilets and can therefore comfortably host a crew of 6 and, if required, it can even accommodate two more, thanks to the convertible table in the saloon.

What’s more, the magnificent fore cabin, which has its own private bathroom, will leave any visitors who take a peek in there absolutely green with envy! This layout is ideally designed for a perfect cruising holiday with friends or family.

Onboard you will find: a TV screen, LED lighting, solar panels, shore power air-conditioning, fans, USB sockets, electric toilets and much more.

The gently-sloping companionway leads down to a modern, floodlit saloon and a functional, well-designed C-shaped galley: all you need to ensure a pleasurable cruise.

Moorings 37.2

The Moorings 37.2 is an elegant and well thought-out design by Groupe Finot and Nauta Design. Not just for short range cruising, the Moorings 37.2 is capable of supporting long range requests. She features 2 cabins and 1 head, a roomy salon and L-shaped galley; all with plenty of storage, lighting, and ventilation.

Electronics upgrades include TV/DVD and dock side air conditioning. Innovation ominates the design of this exceptional new boat, taking the concept of purposeful design to a completely new level.
