PMY - Power&Motoryacht

Keep your eyes peeled for my review of Viking’s new 42 Open in the upcoming May issue of PMY.

The 42’s Palm-Beach-style helm is one of the simplest, most elegant setups I’ve seen on a boat of any size in the past few years. And simple is important, in my opinion—some vessels these days are perhaps overly complicated from the operational standpoint, a foible that Viking’s gracefully avoided with the 42.
