Expertly maintained and significantly upgraded, this 1977 Ferretti Yachts Altura 42 is a classic motorsailer that combines traditional lines with modern reliability. The vessel has undergone extensive refitting over the past two years, including a complete repaint of the topsides with Awl Grip and a reinforced hull rub rail featuring an aluminum and rubber profile. Technical reliability is ensured by the 125 HP Aifo-Iveco engine, which underwent revision in 2022.
The deck and rigging have received focused attention to ensure safe and efficient handling. Updates include the installation of a Bamar C2 furler, a new genoa, replaced mizzen rigging, and an overhauled electrical system within the mast. The vessel's safety profile is current, with a certificate of safety valid until 2029 and updated safety equipment as of 2024. Practical upgrades also extend to replaced mooring cleats and renewed lazy bags for both the main and mizzen sails.
Designed for comfort, the interior layout provides three distinct cabins and two bathrooms, complemented by an expansive dinette and a sheltered, ergonomic cockpit. Recent interior improvements feature renovated woodwork and new mattresses throughout the cabins. System-level maintenance includes a full overhaul of the hydraulic steering and the replacement of all service and engine batteries in 2024.
This motorsailer is ideally suited for those seeking a character-filled vessel that has already undergone the necessary capital improvements for immediate use. With its verified maintenance history and recent structural upgrades, this Ferretti remains a solid performer for coastal cruising.
