The Greenline 42 is a planing cruiser designed by Marco Casali, with naval architecture by MICAD and a GRP hull and superstructure. Built around Greenline’s emphasis on sustainable cruising and simplified onboard operation, the yacht combines contemporary styling, integrated solar capability and accommodation for up to six guests.
Contemporary styling introduces a more refined Greenline profile
The Greenline 42 continues the Slovenian builder’s focus on practical cruising yachts with a cleaner and more modern exterior identity. The yacht will showcase its features at the Venice Boat Show 2026. These features include expansive glazing, soft angular detailing and a low-profile superstructure intended to maximise natural light throughout the interior spaces. Wide side decks and a relatively modest draft of just 0.64 metres also support easier coastal cruising and marina access, while the overall profile maintains the brand’s longstanding emphasis on owner usability rather than aggressive sport styling. The model has already received recognition ahead of its debut with a nomination in the Motor Yacht 12–14m category at the Yacht Style Awards 2026.
Solar integration and practical deck spaces shape onboard living
A defining feature of the boat is its focus on low-impact cruising and efficient onboard systems. Strong solar integration supports quieter time at anchor and reduces reliance on generators during day-to-day use, aligning with the builder’s wider sustainability-focused philosophy. The yacht’s exterior layout has been designed around relaxed social use, with open aft deck spaces connecting directly to the saloon and swim platform to create a more fluid indoor-outdoor environment. Large windows throughout the superstructure further reinforce this connection while improving visibility and natural ventilation onboard.
Flexible two-cabin layout prioritises owner operation and comfort
Accommodation onboard the motor yacht is arranged across two cabins with space for up to four guests as standard, while optional layouts can increase capacity to six. The lower deck configuration includes a forward master cabin and guest accommodation alongside a shared bathroom arrangement, with the option for an additional guest head. Interior styling follows the yacht’s exterior philosophy with a clean, modern appearance focused on practicality, storage and natural light. The layout has been designed to support extended cruising while remaining manageable for owner-operators without the need for permanent crew.
Twin Yanmar propulsion delivers efficient performance
Power comes from twin Yanmar 4LV250 engines producing 247hp each, delivering top speeds of up to 25 knots.
