The Tayana Vancouver 42 combines robust construction and traditional double-ended styling with a contemporary underwater profile.

The modified fin keel and skeg-hung rudder provide an easily driven and seakindly hull.

With almost 200 hulls built to date, the Tayana 42 Vancouver has established itself as a serious and capable offshore yacht.

A long waterline and generous beam provide ample storage, making the Tayana 42 an excellent choice for long-term cruising.

The Trunk Cabin version of the 42 is designed to satisfy those who prefer a more traditional look.

The low cabin enhances the yacht’s graceful aura of power and speed.

The center cockpit interior provides:

• Aft cabin privacy
• Excellent storage for the serious offshore cruiser

All Tayana yachts are built to order on a semi-custom basis.

Tayana specializes in modifying interiors to meet the needs of the liveaboard sailor.

The current owners purchased Ki in 2021, and she has since undergone an extensive refit with innumerable upgrades and improvements that have created an almost perfect world cruiser.

Take a look at the specs for details.

Suffice it to say that from her newer standing rigging to watermaker, solar, hard dodger and electronics — Ki lacks nothing.
