Boat Overview

Brainwave is a Hardy 42 Commodore in good condition and well equipped. She was well maintained by her first and is now by her present/second owner. The Hardy 42 is described by Motor Boat & Yachting magazine as ‘the serious cruiser’s choice’. Arguably the class leader of her size and type, the Hardy 42 is an exceptional motor yacht, blending elegant looks with systems engineering built to exacting standards. The Andrew Wolstenholme hull design is capable of more than 25 knots with truly exceptional sea-keeping ability, allowing the crew to enjoy a remarkably smooth ride and maintain high cruising speeds even in adverse weather conditions.
