Boat Description

Introducing the 1976 Palmer Johnson 42-Footer, an exceptional cruising vessel perfect for exploring the Great Lakes and beyond. With over 20 years of sailing experience under its belt, this boat features an aluminum hull and deck that were beautifully repainted in 2008, both still in excellent shape. Last year, the engine underwent a complete professional rebuild, and the hydraulic drive was also fully refurbished, with receipts available for both. Equipped with an array of sails for any occasion, this boat is ready for your next adventure. Key equipment includes a Ray Marine E-120 Chart Plotter (with Great Lakes charts), radar, depth sounder, GPS, a Type 2 wireless auto pilot, and AIS. The Maxwell Windless (2200#) comes with a Bruce anchor for easy anchoring. Inside, the galley boasts a gas stove/oven, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, and kitchen utensils. The electrical system is robust, featuring two new 8D batteries (2024), a solar panel, a 2000-watt inverter/charger, and a comprehensive electrical panel. An inflatable dinghy with an outboard motor is included for additional fun on the water. Sleeping arrangements accommodate up to 7 people in the salon, forward stateroom, and aft stateroom. Additionally, a custom-made cradle allows for easy transportation behind a car without the boat. The current owner acquired it as a summer sailing home to explore the Great Lakes, and the boat was aptly named 'Divertimento,' meaning 'fun' in Italian. After a summer of sailing in 2000, it settled in Kewaunee, Wisconsin, where it has been meticulously renovated inside and out over the past 24 years, sailing thousands of miles around the Great Lakes, including Michigan, Huron, Georgian Bay, and Superior. Now located in Kewaunee, Wisconsin, Divertimento is a well-balanced, fast, and safe boat crafted with integrity by one of the world's premier builders.
