48' Caterpillar-Powered Motor Yacht — United States

Timeless in profile and purposeful in build, this 48-foot motor yacht balances bluewater capability with the comfort of a private coastal retreat. A broad 15-foot beam opens the interior to generous proportions, creating a salon that invites conversation and relaxation while large surrounding windows keep the horizon ever-present. With accommodations for up to eight guests and two well-proportioned heads, she’s equally adept at weekending with friends or setting off on an extended family cruise.

At the heart of her performance are twin Caterpillar inboard diesels, renowned for their reliability, smooth power delivery, and efficient cruising. The hull’s deep, confident stance inspires trust offshore, delivering a composed ride and precise handling at a range of speeds. With 500 gallons of diesel onboard and a thoughtfully balanced 140-gallon freshwater supply, she was conceived for longer passages and unhurried exploration, allowing you to stretch your itinerary without compromising comfort.

Crafted in durable fiberglass/composite construction with a fiberglass deck underfoot, the yacht feels solid and quiet, with the reassuring integrity discerning owners expect. Inside, tasteful finishes and refined joinery create an inviting atmosphere: a welcoming salon with plush seating and a convertible lounge, a practical, fully equipped galley positioned for easy service, and private staterooms that feel intimate yet airy. Clever use of space ensures there’s a place for everything—breezy mornings at anchor, sunset aperitifs, and late-night conversations all have their perfect setting aboard.

On deck, wide side passages and secure handholds support safe movement underway, while the cockpit and lounging zones are designed for easy entertaining and effortless days on the water. Thoughtful storage keeps gear organized and out of sight, preserving a clean, uncluttered aesthetic. From quiet coves to open-water runs, she makes every mile feel composed and purposeful.

Located in the United States and built in 2000, this yacht presents as a versatile platform for owners seeking a capable, elegant cruiser with enduring value. She wears her pedigree in the way she moves through the water, in the quiet confidence of her Caterpillar power, and in the welcoming comfort of her interior—ready to carry you farther, with style to spare.
