Visually, it is modelled on the larger Santasevera 52, which was also designed by brand boss Francesco Guida. Hull number one will already be on display at the trade fair, and two further units are already under construction.
The focus of this model is also clearly on a spacious outdoor area with extensive sunbathing areas and sofas. The superstructure, which is shown in black in the renderings, is pulled far forward and appears quite short at first glance. It offers protection for the steering position and the companionway, but the sunbathing areas behind it are hardly protected from the sun or bad weather. However, we would be surprised if a retractable bimini wasn't at least offered as an option.
On the starboard side is the steering console with space for one person. You won't find a passenger seat or a bench - instead, a C-shaped sofa has been installed. The bulkhead, which separates the interior from the exterior, looks unusually bare in the renderings. A sight that is rarely seen. How it is ultimately realised in reality will be revealed at boot Düsseldorf.
Below deck
Below deck, the shipyard has opted for a flexible layout. The forward cabin can be configured as required and has its own toilet. The concept is particularly suitable for day and weekend trips.
The performance data communicated so far are solid, but not extremely sporty. Two Volvo Penta D4 engines, each with 320 hp, should enable a top speed of around 30 knots. Depending on the configuration, Santasevera offers outboard, sterndrive or IPS variants; the model on show in Düsseldorf will be exhibited with sterndrive. Those who prefer sportier sailing characteristics are more likely to opt for the outboard versions. However, as not all details have been released yet, the engine options are subject to change.
In addition to the premiere of the 42, Santasevera is also showing the Santasevera 52, which made its debut at boot 2025. According to the shipyard, units five and six of this model have already been sold and are currently under construction.
