THE BOAT - 1989 ENDEAVOUR 42 SLOOP

Best Seat OnboardThe Endeavour 42 sloop is a wonderful choice for cruising, living aboard, and enjoying the water. She offers comfort, safety and loads of storage. Some features include a tremendous aft cabin with centerline queen bed, full standing 6' 2" headroom, private aft head with shower stall, and hanging lockers throughout. Blue Runner has a cruising galley with food storage, propane stove/oven, and 12v refrigeration. We have a traditional sailing salon with center drop-leaf table, convertible settees, and full navigation station. A private v-berth cabin with a true queen berth, private head/shower and plenty of ventilation is available at the bow.
