Roger Simpson 42 Cat – Live, Travel, Fish – So much to love!
Boat Name: Morning Light
Features
Here’s an opportunity to create your perfect cruiser, liveaboard, or waterfront bach.
This is a lovely comfortable cat with tidy, spacious living areas, great natural light and good headroom. Clever window design in the salon means there is a near 360 Deg view of the ocean and surrounds. The galley is fantastic with lots of bench space, 2 stainless steel sinks, a great oven, and loads of easily accessible fridge and freezer space.
Accommodation areas are roomy and light with a separate head and hot shower in each hull (+ cold-water cockpit shower). Plenty of outdoor areas for lounging in the sunshine and a cabin heater for cold days.
There is a good sail wardrobe + solar and wind power, but some electronics need attention. Seize the opportunity to set this already lovely cat up to suit your specific needs and wants.
