After its project reveal at this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival, Greenline Yachts is announcing that the new 42-foot model will make its world debut at boot in January 2026.

Already under construction at the Slovenian shipyard, the Greenline 42 combines higher performance, innovative solar technology, and unprecedented customisation.
 
More power, more options
The optimised hull delivers a top speed of 25 knots. It can be equipped with Greenline’s H-Drive 6G system for silent electric manoeuvring and better efficiency. Ten solar panels produce up to 4.3kW to power all onboard systems and recharge batteries faster.
 
This is Greenline’s most versatile model yet. The aft cockpit offers two layouts, including a drop-down transom and removable furniture, while the foredeck lounge provides a stylish, functional social space. Marco Casali’s designs extend to two interior styles, balancing timeless aesthetics with modern luxury.

Owners can now customise cabins, bathrooms, furniture, and appliances more than ever before.
 
“The Greenline 42 reflects everything we know about building enduring, high-quality yachts,” says CEO Vladimir Zinchenko. “It’s designed to provide decades of enjoyment, with options that make each yacht unique to its owner.”
 
The Greenline 42 promises to set a new benchmark for the brand, blending speed, sustainability, and smart design in a semi-customisable package ready for a 2026 launch and World debut at boot 2026 in January.
 
 
ABOUT GREENLINE YACHTS’ RESPONSIBLE YACHTING
Greenline Yachts has developed a distinctive philosophy of responsible yachting. This is not simply a matter of hybrid propulsion and solar panels – the whole design ethos of Greenline Yachts is built around efficiency in the water. It starts with the “superdisplacement” hulls of each model, which have been rigorously developed and tested to provide the smoothest ride, stability and efficiency at both lower and higher speeds. 
 
Responsible Yachting extends to the construction process as well. The high-tech foam sandwich used to strengthen the hull comes from recycled PET plastic. Lay-up is through vacuum infusion, ensuring very precise material use. Currently using exclusively vinyl-ester resin allowing a 5-year warranty against osmosis. Furthermore, the yard’s technicians are experimenting with natural fibres and green resins in the lay-up of the yachts themselves. 
 
The shipyard is also reducing waste and power usage on the production lines. Any offcuts of wood from the interior fit-out are collected and pressed into heating pellets, while leftover foam is reused by a neighbouring company to produce home insulation. Production of single-use marketing materials has been almost eliminated and even then, it is clearly focused on recycled or sustainable materials.
 
Greenline Yachts is also working on an annual Greenline Yachts award to recognise those owners who have made the biggest strides towards responsible yachting each year. For example, the awards will celebrate the owner whose yacht has generated the greatest amount of solar power over that year, as well as the highest number of electric engine hours. This data can be tracked by the client via the Greenline app if the owners agree.
 
It is all part of the Greenline Yachts philosophy of empowering owners to put sustainability at the core of their yachting experience. That is why Greenline Yachts makes sure that every new yacht it delivers is equipped with biodegradable green yacht wash that does no harm to the ocean, and that all its owner’s manuals are in digital form, not printed.
