The Gulfstar 42 (often referred to as the CSY 42 PH, where PH denotes Pilothouse) is a robust and comfortable cruising sailboat designed for extended voyages and liveaboard comfort. Built by the prolific Florida-based Gulfstar Yachts, this model emerged in 1986, reflecting the builder's commitment to creating accessible and capable cruising vessels. With its distinctive pilothouse configuration, the Gulfstar 42 was conceived to offer enhanced protection and comfort in various weather conditions, making it a popular choice for sailors seeking a spacious and seaworthy platform for coastal and offshore adventures. The design philosophy behind Gulfstar's later sailboats, often penned by Vince Lazzara and his son Richard C. Lazzara, evolved to focus on a "balanced approach" that prioritized practical cruising characteristics and respectable upwind performance.
