Henriques Express: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Henrique's 42 Express is a sport fishing boat designed with the rigors of the North Atlantic Ocean in mind. Built in South Jersey, a region known for serious sport fishing vessels, this model emphasizes reliability and functionality favored by professional fishermen. The boat's design and equipment cater specifically to offshore fishing needs, combining durability with practical features to support a successful day on the water.
Exterior Design and Bridge
The foredeck of the 42 Express is expansive and covered with an aggressive non-skid pattern, surrounded by a welded aluminum rail for safety. It includes a bow pulpit with a roller and robust mooring cleats. Wide side decks provide easy access around the boat. The bridge features a centerline helm seat flanked by two companion seats and multiple settees, offering ample comfortable seating for the entire crew. Storage is abundant with numerous lockers, tackle drawers, and large compartments beneath the seating. The bridge deck is climate-controlled with air conditioning and heating, enclosed by a high-quality enclosure that maintains excellent visibility. Engine controls are designed for durability and functionality, reflecting the preferences of professional captains. The layout accommodates a full suite of electronics without compromising space.
Cockpit and Fishing Features
The cockpit is notably spacious, comparable to that of much larger vessels, providing ample room for fishing activities. All hardware is rugged and built to withstand offshore conditions without loosening or rattling. Storage is plentiful, including large fish boxes capable of handling a substantial catch. Convenience features such as a cockpit sink, cooler, soft bolsters, a walk-through door, and a live well on the transom enhance the fishing experience. The deck is reinforced and prepared for the installation of a fighting chair, underscoring the boat’s fishing-focused design.
Engine Room and Engineering
The engine room reflects thoughtful engineering with all grip bilge areas designed for cleanliness and ease of maintenance. The layout and standard equipment choices are informed by practical experience, minimizing upkeep requirements. Accessibility to mechanical components is straightforward, facilitating routine maintenance and inspections. The overall finish is of high quality, though the layout prioritizes fishing functionality over large family cruising accommodations.
Interior Living Spaces and Accommodations
The interior features a forward island berth that offers a comfortable sleeping area, complemented by a convertible table that provides additional bunks. The galley is arranged in an L-shape and equipped with solid surface countertops, ample storage, and a side-by-side refrigerator and freezer. The standard interior finish is ash, with an option for teak as seen in the test boat. Henrique's offers semi-custom options, allowing buyers to tailor layouts to their preferences, including a flybridge model built on the same hull for those seeking more space. To port of the companionway is a full head with a glass-front shower stall, finished to match the rest of the interior, providing a comfortable and home-like environment.
Power and Performance
The 42 Express measures 42 feet in length with a beam of 14 feet 9 inches and a draft of 45 inches. It carries 660 gallons of fuel and 120 gallons of water, displacing 36,500 pounds. Powered by twin MAN diesel 800 engines, the boat achieved a top speed of 36.6 knots during testing. Its cruising speed was 31.3 knots at 2,000 rpm, consuming 55 gallons of fuel per hour and providing a range of approximately 338 nautical miles. While not exceptionally fast, the performance is respectable given the boat’s robust construction and fishing-oriented design.
Conclusion
The Henrique's 42 Express is a purpose-built sport fishing vessel that prioritizes fishing functionality and offshore reliability over expansive interior space. Its rugged construction, spacious cockpit, and practical features make it well-suited for serious anglers who require a dependable platform for challenging conditions. Although the interior accommodations are modest compared to cruising yachts, the semi-custom options and quality finishes offer a comfortable environment for extended trips. Overall, the 42 Express presents a balanced combination of performance, durability, and fishing capability.
