Our Thoughts

This 2022 Henriques 42 Express Hardtop represents a thoughtfully equipped offshore center console designed for serious cruising and sportfishing. Powered by twin Cummins QSM11 diesel engines rated at 715 horsepower each, the vessel delivers the kind of reliable, fuel-efficient propulsion that owners expect from a 42-foot inboard platform. With just 205 hours on the engines, the powerplant remains relatively fresh, and the boat's comprehensive mechanical systems—including a 9 kW Onan generator, Seakeeper 6 gyroscopic stabilization, Mastervolt 70-amp battery charger, Racor fuel and water separators, and Fireboy Halon fire suppression—reflect a build philosophy centered on dependable offshore operation.

The enclosed hardtop design is the defining feature of this model, providing weather protection and a commanding helm station that doesn't sacrifice the open-air fishing experience of a true center console. The hardtop shelters three Stidd helm chairs, a full electronics suite, and a comfortable helm dash with Fusion Apollo stereo, while the aft cockpit remains expansive and purpose-built for fishing. The 42-foot length and 14.75-foot beam create a stable platform, and the 660-gallon fuel capacity supports extended range cruising typical of the class.

Electronics are comprehensive and modern. The Garmin package includes three 17-inch GPSMAP displays at the lower helm, a 9-inch display mounted on the tower (2024), a 4-foot open array 12 kW radar, Reactor 40 autopilot, GT-51 transducer, GSD 25 sounder, and dual VHF radios. Recent additions include a Garmin cockpit camera and a 16-inch touchscreen display in the cockpit, both installed in 2024. The Optimus EPS electronic power steering system (2024) provides responsive, modern helm control. Starlink Wi-Fi connectivity (2024) enables communication and navigation support throughout the cruise.

The cockpit layout emphasizes fishing capability without compromising cruiser comfort. A Release 6 rod rocket launcher mounted on the hardtop structure, combined with 10 gunnel and transom rod holders plus six additional weld-on rod holders on the tower legs, provides ample rigging for multiple anglers. Two macerated fishboxes, a transom livewell, freezer storage on the starboard side, and tackle drawers create a fully realized fishing environment. Lumitec Typhoon underwater lights (six total, installed 2024) enhance nighttime fishing and ambiance. A walk-through transom door, automatic windlass, dual washdown systems (fresh and saltwater), and integrated cockpit sink improve daily operation and maintenance. Outriggers, gunnel lights, flood lights, and a forward light bar round out the deck systems.

Below, the interior layout balances functionality with livability. The galley features a refrigerator and freezer, single-burner stovetop, microwave, and Corian countertops with sink—adequate for weekend cruising and overnight passages. A private head with handheld shower, vanity, and mirror provides essential comfort. The convertible dinette with L-shaped seating and entertainment center with soundbar serves as the main social space, while a forward cabin with overhead hatches, hanging storage, and cabin air conditioning offers sleeping quarters. A 20-gallon holding tank, 12-gallon hot water tank, and 120-gallon water capacity support extended time away from

2022 Henriques 42 Express Hardtop: Enclosed Hardtop Sportfisher with Twin Cummins Power and Comprehensive Garmin Electronics
Overview
The 2022 Henriques 42 Express Hardtop represents a fully equipped offshore sportfishing platform built for serious anglers and cruising families who demand both performance and protection. Powered by twin Cummins QSM11 diesel engines producing 715 horsepower combined and logging only 205 hours, this 42-foot hardtop express combines the open-water capability of a center console with the weather protection and comfort of an enclosed helm and cabin. Located in Lanoka Harbor, New Jersey, this vessel arrives turnkey with a comprehensive suite of 2024 electronics upgrades, stabilization technology, and fishing systems that position it as a capable blue-water platform ready for extended offshore operations. The hardtop design distinguishes this model from traditional center consoles, providing full headroom protection in the helm station and a covered cockpit workspace—a critical feature for Northeast Atlantic fishing where weather protection extends the operational season. The 14.75-foot beam provides stability and usable deck space without sacrificing the fuel efficiency and handling characteristics that make express-style hulls popular for long-distance runs to offshore grounds.
Layout and Deck Design
The Henriques 42 Express Hardtop organizes its 42-foot length into distinct functional zones: a protected helm station forward, a spacious cockpit amidships, and a cabin below with private head and galley. This layout prioritizes fishing accessibility while maintaining comfortable overnight or multi-day cruising accommodations. The large cockpit is the operational heart of the vessel, designed with a Release 6 Rod Rocket Launcher mounted on the hardtop structure, providing secure storage and rapid access to rigged rods. Two macerated fishboxes flanking the transom keep the catch fresh and organized, while a transom livewell supports live bait systems for bottom fishing, chunking, or live-bait applications. The walk-through transom door—a practical addition on fishing vessels—enables easy access to the swim platform and facilitates boarding from tenders or the water. Rod storage extends throughout the cockpit and tower structure. Ten gunnel and transom rod holders are positioned for ready access, with six additional weld-on rod holders mounted on the tower legs for storing backup rigged rods or specialized tackle configurations. Tackle drawers below the helm chair and throughout the cockpit provide organized storage for terminal tackle, lures, and small equipment, keeping frequently used items within arm's reach of the angler. The starboard side includes a freezer storage unit and cockpit sink, supporting the practical needs of fish processing and cockpit cleanup. A full washdown system with both fresh and saltwater capability enables thorough rinsing of decks, equipment, and catch at the end of the day. Lighting enhances both safety and fishing effectiveness. Gunnel lights and a forward light bar illuminate the deck during pre-dawn runs and night operations, while six Lumitec Typhoon underwater lights (installed in 2024) attract baitfish and gamefish to the transom, enabling specialized night-fishing techniques. Flood lights in the cockpit provide task lighting for gaff work and fish handling. Comfort features in the cockpit include bolstered seating and an L-shaped bench seat with a teak dinette table forward, offering protected seating for crew or passengers during transit or idle time.
Helm and Electronics
The enclosed helm station sets this express apart from open-console designs, delivering weather protection and professional-grade ergonomics. Three Stidd helm chairs—the industry standard for serious fishing vessels—provide adjustable, shock-absorbing seating for the captain and crew. Soft foam teak flooring (a 2024 upgrade) adds warmth and non-skid safety underfoot, while an L-shaped bench with storage below accommodates additional crew or passengers. The helm bulkhead is enclosed and features back protection, creating a true pilothouse environment that keeps operators warm and dry during extended offshore runs in rough conditions. Windshield wipers (three units) maintain visibility in rain and spray, and an illuminated compass provides traditional navigation backup. The electronics suite reflects a comprehensive 2024 upgrade package centered on Garmin marine systems. Three 17-inch Garmin GPSMAP displays are installed at the lower helm station, providing redundancy and the ability to run different chart views or sounder functions simultaneously. An additional 9-inch Garmin display mounted on the tower (2024) enables upper-station monitoring of position, depth, and radar during docking or shallow-water navigation. A Garmin 4-foot open array 12-kilowatt radar delivers long-range target detection and weather overlay capability, essential for offshore navigation and storm avoidance. The Garmin Reactor 40 autopilot (2024 upgrade) provides advanced waypoint navigation, sea-state compensation, and autopilot-assisted docking features that reduce fatigue on long runs. Sounder capability is delivered through a Garmin GT-51 transducer and GSD 25 sounder, enabling detailed bottom structure identification, thermocline detection, and fish-finding applications critical for offshore sportfishing. Two Garmin VHF radios ensure redundant communication with Coast Guard, other vessels, and shore-based services. A Fusion Apollo stereo in the helm dash and JL Audio components throughout the vessel (including a Fusion stereo in the cabin, 7.7-inch JL Audio speakers in cockpit and helm, and an m600 amplifier) deliver quality audio for navigation alerts and entertainment. The Optimus EPS steering system (2024 upgrade) provides electronic power steering with joystick capability, significantly improving helm control and reducing physical effort during extended operations or docking maneuvers. A FLIR thermal camera (model MD-625, installed 2024) adds night-vision capability for navigation, man-overboard response, and wildlife observation. Starlink WiFi (2024) provides continuous internet connectivity for weather routing, fish reports, and communication regardless of cellular coverage. Lenco trim tabs enable fine-tuning of hull attitude for fuel efficiency and comfort across varying sea states.
Fishing Features
The Henriques 42 is purpose-built for offshore sportfishing, with systems and storage designed around the demands of extended trips targeting tuna, marlin, wahoo, and other pelagic species. The Release 6 Rod Rocket Launcher mounted on the hardtop provides secure, organized storage for six rigged rods in a configuration that minimizes tangles and enables rapid deployment. The launcher's elevated position keeps rods clear of cockpit traffic and provides visual confirmation of tackle readiness. Two macerated fishboxes with through-hull discharge prevent odor and mess while preserving catch quality. The transom livewell supports live-bait systems essential for bottom fishing, live mackerel presentations, or live bonito chunking. Freezer storage on the starboard side handles processed fish, keeping the catch in premium condition for the return to port. The transom walk-through door is a practical feature on fishing vessels, providing easy access for crew to board from tenders, assist swimmers, or manage fishing lines near the transom. Combined with the full washdown system, this configuration supports the practical demands of fish handling and deck maintenance. Rod holders—ten throughout the gunnel and transom, plus six weld-on mounts on the tower legs—accommodate multiple rigged rods and backup tackle configurations. The tackle drawers positioned throughout the cockpit enable organized storage of hooks, leaders, lures, and terminal tackle. Lumitec Typhoon underwater lighting attracts baitfish and gamefish to the transom during night operations, enabling specialized fishing techniques and increasing encounter rates during darkness hours.
Comfort and Seating
The Henriques 42 accommodates crew and passengers with multiple seating configurations suited to different operational modes. The helm station features three Stidd chairs positioned for optimal visibility and control. An L-shaped bench with teak dinette table forward of the helm provides sheltered seating for crew or passengers during transit or at rest. The cockpit includes bolstered seating that provides back support and comfort during longer operations. The covered hardtop structure protects all helm and cockpit personnel from sun, rain, and spray—a significant comfort advantage over open-console designs, particularly in the Atlantic Northeast where weather protection extends the operational season. Interior seating includes a convertible dinette with L-shaped seating and an entertainment center with soundbar in the cabin, offering comfortable accommodations for relaxation or entertainment during overnight anchorages or multi-day trips.
Cabin and Interior
The cabin layout prioritizes functional cruising accommodations in a compact footprint. A convertible dinette with L-shaped seating and storage below serves as both dining area and entertainment hub, with an integrated entertainment center and soundbar providing audio and video during downtime.
