Our Thoughts

The 2026 MTI 422V represents a thoughtful evolution of MTI's proven V-series platform, introducing a meaningful refinement of the original V42 design that debuted in 2014. This 42-foot center console brings together MTI's patented hull technology with an expanded cabin, improved functionality, and a layout designed for serious boaters who want both performance and livability in a single platform.

Hull Design & Performance

The foundation of the 422V is MTI's proprietary "Slot V" hull, a twin-keel design that fundamentally changes how the boat behaves at speed. The twin-keel geometry—similar in principle to catamaran construction—creates a boundary layer of trapped air between the keels, reducing friction and allowing the stepped hull to ventilate efficiently. The result is straight, predictable handling across all speeds with no sliding or hooking in turns. The pronounced bow flare and wide entry work together to maintain a dry ride in both head and following seas, keeping the bow elevated and effectively managing large swells. This is not a race boat design adapted for cruising; it's a purpose-built platform where the hull geometry directly supports the boat's intended use.

Cabin & Interior

The redesigned interior sets the 422V apart in the 42-foot center console segment. A full private head below deck—a feature rarely offered in this size class—expands the boat's capability for overnighting and extended cruising. The cabin layout now includes an expanded forward berth with a comfortable mattress that folds to create a limo-style seat when not in use, a galley area, and improved natural lighting through newly integrated cabin windows. The helm station features a larger dash configured to accommodate a 27-inch Garmin display, providing comprehensive electronics integration in a clean, modern layout.

Cockpit Configuration & Seating

The cockpit is organized around multiple distinct seating areas, each designed for specific uses. The front sun lounge above the central cabin offers a contoured, cradling design that provides security and comfort at cruising speeds. Forward of that is U-shaped bow seating for additional guests. The helm area is elevated for improved visibility, with two rows of three-person bolsters behind the console—each capable of functioning as both stand-up or sit-down seating. A large, integrated hardtop covers both rows, providing shade and weather protection. Aft, a spacious rear bench completes the layout. This tiered configuration gives the boat genuine social capacity without compromising the functional helm area.

Access & Storage

New dock doors on both port and starboard sides, each with integrated boarding ladders, simplify docking from either side—a practical feature in tight marina situations. Bow boarding steps eliminate the challenge of climbing aboard at higher docks, particularly valuable in Florida waters. Throughout the boat, molded hatches and new storage compartments—including dedicated bow storage—maximize usable space without creating clutter.

Customization & Build

Each 422V is custom-built to the owner's specifications. MTI's extensive options list allows configuration across seating arrangements, cabin amenities, and system selections, with the flexibility to accommodate requests beyond the standard offering. Whether your boating centers on performance cruising, family outings, fishing, or using the boat as a tender platform, the 422V's modular approach supports your specific needs.

The 2026 MTI 422V combines proven hull technology, expanded cabin functionality, and thoughtful deck layout into a 42-foot center console that delivers both the ride quality MTI is known for and the comfort features serious cruisers require.

MTI V422: Next-Generation 42-Foot Center Console with Full Cabin and Patented Slot V Hull
The 2026 MTI V422 represents a significant evolution in the 42-foot center console category, bringing together the proven performance heritage of MTI's patented Slot V hull design with an entirely reimagined interior and comfort package that sets it apart from conventional open-water platforms. Built as a fully custom order through TNT Custom Marine in Miami , this vessel merges the speed and handling characteristics that define the original V42 platform—introduced in 2014—with amenities and layout innovations previously found only in larger, more complex cruising yachts. The V422 is engineered for buyers seeking a single hull that performs equally well in fishing applications, extended cruising, family entertainment, or as a tender to a superyacht, without sacrificing the dry-running stability and predictable handling that define MTI's reputation.
Hull Design and Seaworthiness
The V422's foundation is MTI's patented Slot V hull, a design philosophy that departs fundamentally from conventional vee-bottom construction. The hull incorporates twin keels—a feature borrowed from proven catamaran engineering—that work in concert with a stepped bottom design to deliver handling characteristics described as rail-like across the speed range. This twin-keel configuration traps a boundary layer of air beneath the hull and between the keels, reducing wetted surface and improving efficiency while maintaining the directional stability and predictability that serious boaters demand in variable sea conditions. The bow design emphasizes flare and reserve buoyancy, allowing the V422 to maintain a high bow attitude in both head seas and following conditions. This geometry actively sheds water and reduces green water on deck, a critical feature for offshore applications or extended time in rough conditions. The wide bow profile breaks down larger swells effectively, while the step ventilation design prevents the hull from hooking or sliding during aggressive maneuvering—a characteristic that translates to confidence at cruising speeds and in tight turns. The overall effect is a ride that feels planted and predictable rather than tippy or unsettled, a distinction that becomes apparent within minutes of departure.
Layout and Deck Design
The 2026 V422 reimagines the practical use of space in a 42-foot platform. The cabin footprint has been enlarged compared to the previous V42 generation, and the aft cockpit area has been completely redesigned to create more usable room without increasing the overall beam of 11.5 feet. This expansion is particularly evident in the reconfigured seating arrangement and the addition of dual dock doors on both port and starboard sides, each equipped with an integrated boarding ladder on the starboard door. For Florida-based operators and those frequenting high-dock facilities, this dual-access design eliminates the awkwardness of boarding from a single side and simplifies docking procedures when approaching from either direction. The foredeck introduces boarding steps on both sides, a practical addition that improves safety and ease of access when boarding from higher docks—a consideration that reflects the realities of modern marina infrastructure in South Florida and the Caribbean . The bow features a U-shaped seating arrangement that provides comfortable forward-facing accommodation with structural support and a sense of security. Forward of the helm, a sun lounge occupies the area above the central cabin, with contoured seating designed to cradle occupants and provide security during cruise-speed operation. The helm area has been elevated to improve sightlines and reduce fatigue during extended running. Behind the helm station, two rows of three-person bolster seating offer flexible accommodation—each bolster can function as either a sit-down or stand-up position depending on sea state and preference. The custom hard top spans the entire helm and secondary seating area, providing weather protection and shade for up to six bolster positions. Aft of the secondary seating, a large rear bench seat provides additional lounging and entertaining space, completing a cockpit layout that balances fishing functionality with family and entertainment versatility.
Cabin and Interior Amenities
The V422's most significant departure from traditional 42-foot center console design is the integration of a full private head located within the cabin space. This feature, rare in vessels of this size and category, reflects MTI's commitment to extending the boat's range and livability for overnight and extended-cruise applications. The cabin forward section incorporates a large berth with a quality mattress, and the bed design includes a folding rear section that converts the sleeping area into a limo-style seating position—a clever solution that maximizes space utility when the berth is not in use. The galley area is positioned to support both day-cruising and overnight scenarios, while the electric flush head is concealed beneath an additional seating area, maintaining the open-plan aesthetic while providing privacy and functionality. New cabin windows have been integrated into the design to introduce natural lighting and improve the sense of space and connection to the water. The interior has undergone a complete aesthetic redesign, moving away from purely utilitarian styling toward a more refined, contemporary finish that aligns with modern luxury expectations. The dash has been enlarged to accommodate up to a 27-inch Garmin display in the center, providing a modern electronics foundation while maintaining clean, integrated aesthetics. Recessed wind deflectors have been engineered into the cabin top to reduce wind noise and turbulence in the cockpit and helm areas, a detail that improves comfort during high-speed running and extended cruising.
Storage and Practical Design
MTI has prioritized storage capacity in the V422, with molded hatches and integrated storage areas distributed throughout the platform. The bow area includes dedicated storage compartments, addressing a common complaint in smaller center consoles where gear stowage requires creative solutions. This emphasis on accessible, purpose-designed storage reflects the reality that modern boaters expect to carry fishing equipment, safety gear, tender inflatables, and personal belongings without compromising the clean, uncluttered appearance of the deck.
Customization and Configuration
Each V422 is custom-built to suit the specific boating lifestyle and priorities of the individual buyer. MTI offers a comprehensive options list covering seating configurations, cabin amenities, electronics integration, propulsion choices, and specialized equipment. The builder explicitly welcomes requests for custom applications beyond the standard option menu, signaling a willingness to engineer solutions for unique requirements—whether that involves fishing-specific features, extended-range cruising modifications, or integration with a superyacht tender program. The flexibility in cabin and seating configuration allows buyers to optimize the boat for their primary use case. A buyer focused on offshore fishing can prioritize tackle storage, livewells, and fighting chairs; a family-oriented buyer can emphasize the sleeping accommodations and entertainment layout; a long-distance cruiser can enhance galley facilities and navigation systems. This modular design philosophy ensures that the V422 can serve diverse roles without requiring compromises that would undermine performance in any single application.
Why the MTI V422 Represents a Category Shift
The 2026 MTI V422 occupies a unique position in the 42-foot market. Most center consoles of this size prioritize open-water performance and fishing functionality, offering only minimal cabin space suitable for short trips or as a weather refuge. Conversely, cabin cruisers and express models in this range often sacrifice the responsive handling and efficient operation that define true center console DNA. The V422 attempts to bridge this divide by maintaining MTI's proven hull technology and open-deck functionality while introducing cabin amenities and overnight capability that extend its practical range and appeal. The patented Slot V hull, refined through a decade of real-world operation and customer feedback, provides the foundation for this versatility. The twin-keel design and stepped bottom ensure that the boat handles with the precision and predictability expected in fishing and performance applications, while the enlarged cabin and enhanced comfort features make extended cruising and family entertaining genuinely viable. For buyers in the Miami area and across South Florida seeking a single boat capable of serving multiple roles—offshore fishing, weekend cruising, family entertainment, and superyacht support—the V422 offers a solution engineered specifically for that complexity. The 2026 model year represents a meaningful generational step forward, incorporating lessons learned from the original V42 platform while addressing practical limitations that emerged from real-world use. The dual dock doors, bow boarding steps, enlarged cabin, full private head, and redesigned seating all reflect direct responses to operator feedback rather than arbitrary styling updates. For a custom-order platform, the V422 is available now through TNT Custom Marine in Miami, with pricing available upon request.
