2015 Fairline Squadron 42

This yacht proved to be one of our most ambitious challenges. How can the identity of our most inspiring and exclusive models translate into a smaller yacht?

It was the most wonderful brief for our designers that would require every ounce of their ingenuity and experience. The result is a compact Squadron with the genuine feeling of a much, much larger yacht. Each area has been designed to work in harmony with the next. Your journey through the entire yacht is seamless, with no interruptions. And it is this flow that gives a feeling of a luxurious, open space. The type of freedom you would only expect from a 50+ foot yacht. The large flybridge isn’t just for show, every aspect has been carefully considered to create the space for people to move around freely. Yes, we can safely say, it is every inch a Squadron.
