In the late 1990s Austin Parker was one of the very first Italian yards to start building an express cruiser strongly inspired by classic Maine lobster boat designs. Today, the company builds 7 different models ranging from 36’ to 72’ (10.97 to 21.94 m), all with a strong family resemblance. The 42 Open is an express cruiser designed to be an elegant day boat or a versatile family cruiser and comes in both single stateroom or twin cabin layouts.
