Boat Overview

The Sparkman & Stephens Tartan 42 is a classic Performance Cruiser that can be used as a club racer or cruiser, or both! She features two private staterooms, each with its own private Head, spacious berths, and ample storage. The Saloon is comfortable and roomy. She sails like a Tartan: quick and close to the wind, with good performance downwind as well. The exterior has minimal teak maintenance, while the interior boasts beautiful joinery that adds a touch of luxury. "Jade," with her dark green hull, tan canvas, and classic lines, is a head-turner wherever she goes. This is a special yacht.

The Tartan 42 is a CLASSIC Sparkman & Stephens Performance Cruiser. She has 2 private cabins, each with its own Head, and a Saloon that can accommodate extra crew with room to feed and entertain guests.

Starting at the bow, the private forward cabin features a large Vee Berth with a thick, comfortable mattress. A large opening hatch, 12V reading lights, a fan, and 2 classic Deck Prisms provide a light and airy feel. There is a dressing seat on the starboard side of the entry, a hanging locker, two drawers over a smaller cabinet, and 2 hull shelves for storage. For additional privacy, there is a separate door to the forward Head on port.

The forward Head is located aft on port and includes a commode, sink, and shower with a seat. A large teak cabinet with a mirror, a smaller medicine cabinet, and a cabinet over the commode with sliding mirrored doors provide ample storage. An opening port and a fluorescent light offer light and ventilation.

A large Hanging Locker is located across on starboard from the Head entrance.

The Saloon is the larger cabin, featuring a dropleaf table that can seat crew and guests and can be removed. There is a settee on port with a pilot berth above against the hull, and across on starboard, another settee that also serves as a berth. Shelves and cabinets are above the starboard berth. The Saloon has 3 overhead lights, 2 reading lights, and natural light from the large opening hatch and 6 opening ports, providing excellent light and ventilation.

The hull-facing Navigation Table is located aft of the starboard settee. It features a large desk with good storage underneath and in three drawers, plus a broom-sized closet. A clock, barometer, VHF Radio, and Ship's Electric Panel are all within easy reach. A 12V Fan keeps the air circulating.

Across on port is the "U" shaped Galley, equipped with a 3-burner Shipmate gimballed propane stove/oven, a large Adler Barbour Refrigerator, hot/cold pressured faucet, filtered water, and a hand-pump cold water faucet. There is extensive storage, including a dry storage bin, cabinets over the stove, and a dinnerware cabinet on the bulkhead. The 42 utilizes space well, offering great storage.

The Aft Cabin is accessed to starboard of the companionway, aft of the Nav Station. The cleverly designed, private ensuite head is just inside the entrance. Upon entering, you see the full-sized sink, which folds and stores against the hull side, revealing a full-size commode. It takes seconds to set up. A couple of steps beyond the Head is a very comfortable double berth with plenty of storage. It is a light and airy cabin with natural light, electric lights, and opening ports.

The Cockpit is spacious enough for your sailing crew and guests, making it a great place for evening entertainment or an afternoon nap.

I really like this Sparkman and Stephens Yacht.
