The Targa 42/44 features a timeless, classic “Targa”-design and provides ample room both inside and out, and handles very well in difficult conditions. Produced in the renowned Targa spirit, the Targa 42/44 is a boat you can trust to safely take you to your destination.
Introduced at the Scandinavian Boat Show in Stockholm in 2005, the Targa 42 won the “Motorboat of the Show” award. With its practical and comfortable features, it is not hard to see why. The motivation of the jury:
“The Targa 42 is the result of an original idea that has become a complete boat range. Many have copied the concept but few come even close. With the Targa 42, Botnia Marin has got a real flagship that is comfortable as well as practical – suitable among icebergs and in burning sun.”
The Targa 44 (in all other aspects the same boat as the Targa 42, but with a modified transom giving the boat a longer waterline length and a larger engine room) was introduced in 2007. At the same time the Targa 44 with the revolutionary Volvo Penta IPS system was introduced – an instant success. The IPS is working perfectly together with the well-balanced hull of the Targa 44. After thoroughly being tested, the Targa 44 won the prestigious Motorboat of the Year Award in 2009. The motivation of the jury was as overwhelmingly positive as in 2005:
“If ever a boat deserved its billing as the “4×4 of the sea” then this is it. On test the new IPS-powered Targa 44 delivered 38 knots into a Force 6 with 11 people on board – more than enough to convince us that this was not only the clear winner of our Wheelhouse & Walkaround award but our favourite 4×4 by far.”
The alternative CFC – Comfort Fore Cabin – layout features a raised fore deck with secure railing and easy movement. Inside, the CFC offers plenty of space, storage and head room. The large “island”-style bed, the extra pipe berth and the second en-suite-toilet offers truly flexible sleeping accommodation onboard.
