All Whitby 42's are great boats. And they all have the basic greats, if you are here, you already know what those are. But this Whitby has been COMPLETELY upgraded. This site gives a history of that. There are some things that are special to this Whitby that make it a ONE OF A KIND.
Here are the special things:
CENTER FUEL TANK REPLACED
Has been replaced. The old one was removed and two were installed. A space was left between for the bilge pump. See blog to see all the work that was done.

The engine room is spacious so working on equipment there is comfortable. The Forward Cabin features a long and wide vee berth with an insert that can be stowed over the bunk on the overhead. Ahead of the berth is access to the chain locker which has a divider to keep two anchor rodes separated. The varnished teak finish was completely redone in 2013. and in great shape and there are teak hull strips on the sides. A large deck hatch opens over the berth and there is a folding stair on the bulkhead to assist exiting from this hatch. There is also an opening portlight. Drawers, a large hanging locker and six air craft lockers provide ample storage. There is direct access to the Forward Head from this vee berth area. There is a second access door from the salon. The head is finished in laminate so is easy to clean. There is a vanity sink, in brushed stainless, mirror, Jabasco manual marine toilet, teak shower grate, shower, an opening portlight and a solar powered cowl vent for added ventilation. The Main Salon is large and features two bench seats to strb with storage underneath. To port is an L-shaped settee that pulls out to convert to a berth. There is a two-leave table that folds up out of the way onto the forward bulkhead or down to sit up to six for dinner. Behind the table is a book shelf with 4 shelves. The mast is stepped on the keel but is hidden in in a cushioned fabric cover that matches the seats. There are four opening ports and four fixed windows and an opening overhead deck hatch with all contribute to making this cabin light and airy and inviting. Aft to stbd is a forward facing Navigation Station with seat with storage under. The large surface nav. table is a great place to lay out charts. A waste basket is built-in to the cabinet under the chart table. All electrical runs to the nav. station and can be controlled from the seat, both 12 volt and 110 AC. The Galley is a U-shape custom corian counter with a double basin brushed stainless steel sink on centerline . There is a large dry storage locker in the counter and other lockers for food and pots and pans. Five drawers and 3 bins add to the storage of this space.

They extends the length of the aft counter and has two top access doors and a single front access door. This is cooled by Frigoboat keel cooled system installed in 2013. A teak shelf system above the counter is perfect for plates and other quick need items. In the corridor to the aft compartment is a work bench with lots of storage, including an under the counters in this area. It is chart storage, a feature not found on more modern cruisers. There is a wet locker for hanging foul weather gear and access to the engine room is in this space with two doors. The engine room has been redesigned so that most maintenance can be done from the door. This includes changing the oil, fuel filters, and water intake filters. The Owners Stateroom is aft and this area features a bed that can be set up as two twin beds to port and stbd or as a single large double bed for sleeping athwartshps.
