1998 Offshore Yachts 48 Yachtfisher

The Offshore 48 Yachtfisher is a sedan-bridge design from naval architect William Crealock, defined by long, clean lines and a low center of gravity that balance visual appeal with forgiving seakeeping in varied conditions. Twin Caterpillar diesel engines deliver 840 horsepower, providing a cruising speed of 9.5 knots and a maximum speed of 18 knots. The air draft measures 18 feet with VHF antennas lowered, making her well-suited for inland waterway cruising.

The interior layout includes two cabins and two heads, arranged for extended cruising comfort. The hull design requires no fin stabilizers, eliminating appendages that can catch on traps or debris—a practical advantage for coastal and Great Lakes operation.

This boat has been maintained through regular service intervals and system upgrades by quality shipyards. The fiberglass hull is sound, and the yacht's equipment and systems have been continuously improved under attentive ownership.
