JFA PETREL 42 - A TWIN RUDDER BLUEWATER CRUISER BUILT BY JFA

Designed and built in 1998 by the French yard JFA, the Petrel 42 belongs to that breed of offshore cruisers built for the sea, with no compromise on strength. A 12.80 m strip-planked hull, three cabins and six berths: a boat for crews who want to go far, for a long time, on a yacht that can take the miles. New mast, boom, rigging in 2019, Sparcraft Performance. French flag, offered at €119,000 incl. VAT.

Build and seakeeping

The strip-planking construction, a hallmark of quality bluewater builds, combines stiffness, insulation and longevity. At 12.80 m LOA, 4.00 m beam and 9,000 kg displacement, the Petrel 42 is a balanced and reassuring platform. A 1.50 m draft opens up shallow anchorages and coastal cruising as readily as long passages. The rig is served by a full sail wardrobe — full-batten mainsail on track and car, genoa, yankee, staysail, storm jib and two spinnakers with socks — with lazy jacks and lazy bag on the boom, backstay, standing and running rigging, and two Harken electric winches for easy short-handed sailing.

Engines and electronics

Propulsion comes from a Yanmar 3GM30F, 27 hp, 3 cylinders, original 1998 (2,950 hours), together with a Yanmar 3YM30F (3,780 hours), shaft drive and Gori three-blade folding propeller. Cruising speed of 6 knots for a stated 2 l/h, 14 knots top speed, with 400 litres of diesel and 700 litres of fresh water: real cruising autonomy. The electronics were completely renewed in 2024 around a B&G suite, backed by a lithium battery bank and two Victron solar panels.
