Accommodations
CROSSWINDS is maybe the best 42 Sou'Wester on the market today and has accommodations to match. She is beautiful and comfortable has been enjoyed by both owners over the years, maybe one more famous than the other. She was SPRING MOON first and owned by David Rockerfeller.
CROSSWINDS has a large T-shaped aft cockpit that is well laid out for short handed sailing but is very accommodating and comfortable. It is protected by bodger and bimini top with a filler in between. The helmsman has a raised seat that adds to the ease and enjoyment of operation. This cocpit provides very good storage space as well. Behind the cockpit is a large lazerette locker. Note: all of the exterior teak is highly varnished and in very good condition. There are canvas covers for most of the exterior teak to keep it in good condition. All of the exterior canvas is tan Sunbrella canvas and in great condition.

Pedestal mounted, fold down, cockpit table.
Cockpit cushions.

Twelve (12) volt outlet for spotlight.

You enter CROSSWINDS through the centerline companionway and down a few steps to find the navigation station to starboard and the galley to port, both located exactly where they are most convenient to the cockpit. The companionway steps have port and starboard teak handrails, and cherry binocular box and flashlight holders.
She sleeps up to six in two cabins and an open aft quarterberth. Her Herreshoff style interior with white formica bulkheads and high gloss cherry wood trim and white overhead is stunning. The teak and holly sole is high gloss and all locker doors are louvered except for in the forepeak area. Some of the original SPRING MOON logo items have been saved and are used on CROSSWINDS.
This is a beautiful salon, as you would expect from Hinckley, the joinery work all in wonderful condition as if just from the factory. The upholstery is rich and recent. The large salon is next forward with U-shaped dinette settee to port. The custom cherry dining table has double drop leafs. The lockers outboard of the dinette have been customized to maximize storage. The starboard settee pulls out to form a berth. There is storage outboard of this settee as well. The air conditioned interior is a great place to be and a entertaining is made easy. As mentioned, the teak and holly sole gleams of bright varnish. There is a hatch over head for light and ventilation. Head room is good throughout.
Moving forward to port is the head with separate shower stall finished in easy to clean Formica. A white Corian sink is set in a vanity with Frost Formica countertop and is equipped with pressure hot & cold water, and full length mirror. The toilet is Sealand Vacuflush marine head (1998) and there is a Y-valve to a 32 gallon holding tank or directly over-board while at sea. Storage lockers include a linen locker and have additional shelving and louvered doors. The head has an opening port with screen for extra ventilation.
The Owner's Stateroom is forward with large, comfortable V-berths with adapter to form a double berth and seat between, and port and starboard sliding locker storage over/outboard. Additional storage is provided in a cedar lined hanging locker. There are drawers below the berths and a bureau for even more storage space. Lot's of storage space for those longer cruises. You may enter the head and shower directly from this cabin. There is a hatch over head for good light a ventilation. Custom steps are mounted on the aft bulkheads for exiting through the overhead hatch to the foredeck.

Deck & HullCROSSWINDS hull was recently Awlgripped black and look great. She has a single white boot stripe, a white cove stripe, and green bottom paint. Her exterior teak was just varnished July 2013.
Hinckley builds the hull and deck with an additional strength-per-weight ratio that results in a yacht that is strong and light. The hull and deck are hand laid fiberglass. The hull is cored with Airex and is laminated using uni-directional fiberglass. The core is deleted and reinforced in all high stress areas. A single unit is formed when the hull stringers, cored with Airex, are bonded to the hull and integrated with the mast step and engine mounts. The skeg hung rudder provides the necessary protection and strength for long life. The outermost layer of fiberglass is laid up with Vinylester resin to eliminate blistering in the gel coat layer.
The hand laid deck is set in a 6" flange on the hull and fiberglassed and thru bolted in place Hinckley then installs a teak guard rail at the sheer with a S/S half round to form the rub rail for added protection. The end product is a last one. The deck core is Termato R75 foam and where hardware is to be fastened and at the deck at the hull joint, core is eliminated and the area is reinforced with additional layers of fiberglass.
CROSSWINDS has a fiberglass centerboard, weighing about 380 pounds, with a bronze leading edge, and the board is operated by a winch located in the cockpit. She has a shoal draft of 5' with boat up and 9'2" with the board all of the way down.
