Hey Luca , I think you'll get the best answer here . We don't have a W42 and I have never sailed on one . I have seen a few though . My favorite is the the 42 as I love the center cockpit , I think it really lends it's self to some nice canvas work . IMO I do not care for some of the hard dodgers that some people come up with .
Another good thing is you have some choices for the rig I even saw one Schooner rigged .
Good luck keep us posted .
Mark .
