This 2022 Campion 542 Explorer is a rare find—purchased new by the previous owner and still showing in like-new condition. Powered by a reliable Yamaha outboard with just 97 hours, this 18-foot cuddy cabin strikes the perfect balance between fishing utility, family cruising, and overnight versatility.
The lockable cuddy cabin provides shelter, lighting, and storage, making it practical for day trips or an overnight escape. A foredeck walkaround, fiberglass cockpit, and self-bailing deck with overboard drainage add to its durability and ease of use.
Well-equipped for anglers, the boat comes with rod holders, in-floor fish boxes, an aerated livewell, a built-in tackle box, and gunnel rod storage. The cockpit layout features swivel bucket seats with sliding bases, removable jump seats, and aft cushions, offering both comfort and flexibility.
Key features include:
- Fishing gear: tackle box, rod storage, bait/livewell tank, fish boxes
- Hardware: stainless steel cleats, bow rails, pull-out cleats, and steering wheel
- Safety & navigation: compass, halogen docking lights, heavy-duty wiper, horn, automatic bilge pump, and full instrumentation
- Comfort & convenience: Kicker Bluetooth stereo with USB, raw water washdown system, LED lighting
- Canvas package: bimini top, side curtains, and cockpit cover for full enclosure
- Trailer: single-axle bunk trailer with surge brakes
With its Kevlar-reinforced Apex hull, hydraulic tilt steering, and Yamaha power, the 542 Explorer is equally at home chasing salmon, cruising local waters, or spending the night at anchor.
