CE Category A — Open Sea — and 640 PS from two Caterpillar 3208 TA engines: The Yaretti Horizon 42 is not an inland waterway boat that just happened to end up in the Mediterranean. It was built for open water, is authorized to sail there, and is currently moored in Murter on the Adriatic Sea.
Among trawler owners, the Caterpillar 3208 TA has been regarded for decades as one of the most durable marine diesel engines available—well-maintained units can reach 5,000 operating hours or more. 2,700 hours, as recorded on August 27, 2026, is not a sign of wear and tear for these engines, but rather a testament to well-broken-in technology. A bow thruster and two stern thrusters make maneuvering the 19-metric-ton vessel in tight Adriatic marinas a task for a single person.
The aft cabin features wraparound stainless-steel windows and a full headroom of 2.10 meters—a standard rarely achieved on 12-meter boats. The forward cabin also has its own bathroom with an electric toilet. The two cabins are separated by a spacious salon and a fully equipped kitchen: a 4-burner ceramic cooktop, oven, microwave, and freezer. A dinghy with a steering wheel and a 15 PS 4-stroke outboard motor is included.
In short: A CE-A-certified Yaretti Horizon 42 with 640 PS (2 x 320 PS), liveaboard cabins, and a berth on the Adriatic Sea—right where many buyers would put it to use immediately.
