Owner Experience Review

Owners and reviewers tend to approach the BG42fromBLUEGAMEas a versatile weekender and day‑boat, with the open cockpit, fore and aft sunpads, and central‑console walkaround standing out for easy circulation and entertaining. Solo or short‑handed use is a common theme, largely thanks to IPS joystick docking and the boat’s tidy deck ergonomics. Introduced in 2018 and still appearing in dealer and new‑boat listings through recent years, it has maintained relevance with single‑couple coastal cruising in mind.

Underway, reports consistently highlight “pin‑sharp” handling and a very responsive helm, with joystick manoeuvrability simplifying close‑quarters work. Sea trials note that it feels settled around 30 knots, with typical top speeds in the 36–38‑knot range. The 22° transom deadrise and Louis T. Codega hull are credited with cutting through chop with more poise than expected for a 42‑foot sport‑utility design.

Below, the full‑beam midships owner’s cabin pairs with a forward convertible dinette and a roomy head, giving practical overnighting for two. The galley is compact but sensibly arranged for short cruises, while the engine room earns praise for its neat layout and easy access. Standard twin Volvo Penta IPS (IPS600/650) are widely appreciated for handling, though owners and forums note they require authorised‑dealer service and can carry higher parts/repair costs than simple shafts; there are no recurring, model‑specific failures publicly reported, with long‑term discussion focused on broader IPS gearbox/pod history across various boats.

Pros and Cons

Very responsive handling and IPS joystick make single‑operator manoeuvring straightforward.

Feels composed around 30 knots, with good seakeeping from the 22° deadrise Codega hull.

Practical layout with safe walkaround decks and a full‑beam mid‑cabin suits genuine weekending.

Galley is compact and oriented to short cruises rather than extended stays.

IPS systems generally require authorised‑dealer service and can mean higher parts/repair costs than shafts.

Interior accommodation is optimised for two, with guests relying on the forward convertible dinette.
