The Whitby Boatworks 42 is a 12.8-meter masthead ketch, designed by Edward S. Brewer and built from 1972 to 1988 by Whitby Boat Works in Ontario and later by Ft. Myers Yacht and Shipbuilding. This long-keel, center-cockpit vessel is known for its spacious interior and liveaboard potential, featuring a 4.0-meter beam and a 1.5-meter draft. It was produced as a sloop, ketch, or staysail ketch, with later derivatives including the Brewer 12.8 and Brewer 44. The Whitby 42 typically has a balsa-cored hull and deck, and common power plants include the Ford Lehman 254 or Perkins 4236.2:24 While it performs well on reaches and runs, it is sluggish in light air and can be tender due to a 34% ballast-to-displacement ratio.3:56 Practical Sailor notes that common refit needs for aging models include replacing glassed-in chainplates, updating electrical and plumbing systems, and reinforcing the mizzenmast step.5:31
