Niagara 42
8 / 43 - score 58%
The Niagara 42 is a 42.0ft cutter designed by Mark Ellis Design/Hinterhoeller and built in fiberglass by Hinterhoeller Yachts Ltd. since 1984.
20 units have been built.
The Niagara 42 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is average. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
