Whitby 42 Used Boat Review
Under sail, the performance of the Whitby 42 is a bit sluggish through tacks in light air. Her windward performance is acceptable but not outstanding and she has very respectable speed on reaches and runs particularly in moderate to heavy air. The addition of a mizzen stay sail and spinnaker will help light air downwind performance.
Personal experience with a Whitby 42?
1. MOST of the Whitby's had screwed and glued hull to deck joints. Through bolting was an option. Look for an "option" boat! 2. The Brewer 42/2.8 is a very similar boat but built a bit better and a better keel. Look for those as well. 3. The boat is a solid bluewater cruiser with good room and middling sailing performance as one would expect.

Whitby 42

1971 Whitby 42 vs. 1981 Mariner 39
The 1971 Whitby 42 (ketch) has been very well restored and is turnkey. New standing rigging, tanks, autopilot, repainted decks, generator, davits, solar, etc. Low hours on a rebuilt Perkins 65HP engine. The 1981 Mariner 39 Sloop ( the one made in the US) is about half the price but needs a fair amount of work; she has great bones though.

Hull changes to the Whitby 42 were made by cutting out the long keel and attached rudder ...
whitby 42
In terms of sailing ability, the Whitby''s are quite slow compared to similar purpose boats like the Peterson 44''s but are certainly better sailing boats than a boat like the Morgan OI 41''s. While useless as sailboats in lighter conditions, the Whitby 42''s sail reasonably well on a reach and are reportedly pretty easy boats to handle.

Brewer 44 Review: Second Generation Whitby
The Brewer 44 and her sisters the 12.8 and Whitby 42 are solid, classic cruising sailboats from the 70's and 80's. These days they are reasonably priced and worth a look if you are in the market for a center cockpit yacht in the $100,000 range. Comparables include the Bristol 41/43, Bristol 45, Gulfstar 44, and Hylas 44.
Whitby 42
I am looking for a boat to live on board in Annapolis.Also it needs to be one that I can single hand or short hand, primarily in the Chesapeake Bay. I just looked over a Whitby 42, ketch rig, 1980. It is on the hard, the hull cleaned and painted. It has a full suite of new electronics, the broker did not know if it was because of getting ready to do a cruise or a lightning strike.

Whitby 42 vs Brewer 44
Images: 3. Whitby 42 vs Brewer 44. Narrowed down our search for a blue water cruiser to these two options. The Brewer 44 is the later model, big sister of the Whitby 42, and both are scattered worldwide. The kicker is that the Brewer is $100,000 more, on average, and not sure that 2 feet and 5000 lbs is worth the money.
