yacht overview
The Pirelli 42 is a high-performance walkaround day boat built by SACS TecnoRib under licence from Pirelli, with a hull designed by the Swedish Mannerfelt Design Team, renowned for racing and offshore performance. Conceived around a true walkaround layout, the yacht allows safe and fluid movement around the central console, giving it the feel and functionality of a much larger vessel. The deep-V hull delivers a stable, confident ride at speed, while the iconic Pirelli tyre-tread detailing on the tubes reflects its focus on grip, control, and engineering precision. Designed for fast coastal cruising with strong social appeal, the Pirelli 42 is an excellent choice for a stylish day charter in Saint-Tropez, offering a dynamic yet comfortable way to experience the French Riviera coastline.

yacht amenities
The Pirelli 42 is designed for seamless day-to-night use. Beneath the central console, a surprisingly spacious cabin offers standing headroom, a double bed, and a separate bathroom with shower, providing a cool and quiet retreat during the day. Many charter-configured units are equipped with cabin air conditioning and a generator, allowing guests to remain comfortable even while anchored. On deck, large sunpads are positioned both forward and aft, with an adjustable aft backrest that allows guests to face either the cockpit table or the sea. The outdoor galley, located behind the helm seats, typically includes a fridge, sink, and ice maker, supporting relaxed lunches on board. A fixed hardtop provides shade over the helm and dining area, while a premium sound system delivers music throughout the deck spaces.
