Invictus TT420S Video Review: Italian Details and 43 Knots
By the YachtWay editorial deskUpdated October 2026Video walkthrough7 min read
The Invictus TT420S is a 42 ft Italian walkaround with triple Yamaha 425 outboards. We walked a brand new one at anchor off Miami, then took her out. The details stand out: leather with orange stitching, a shower hidden in a lid, leather fenders and leather door stops. The galley faces aft, the windshield opens for fresh air, and below deck there are two cabins and a head. On our run she reached 43 knots (49.6 mph).
Details you would not expect from the photos
Invictus is an Italian brand, and it shows in the details. The shower is built into its own lid, the fenders are covered in leather with wool backing, and the door stops in the head are leather straps. Under the aft sunbed there is an oversized toy garage, and the cockpit tables unfold or drop at a button to make another sunbed. The helm windshield opens electrically for a breeze.

We took her out in a light chop off Miami. With the windshield closed it was quiet, and opening it a little brought in cool air.

- Speed.42 knots (48 mph), comfortable.
- Top speed.43 knots (49.6 mph) after adjusting the trim.
The TT420S is a boat you notice for its details. The leather, the stitching, the hidden shower and the leather fenders make her feel more premium than most boats this size. The aft-facing galley, the tables that become a sunbed and the bow chaise make her easy to live on at anchor. On our run she reached 43 knots and stayed quiet with the windshield closed, with nothing rattling in the chop.
