1999 Bowman 48 Aft Cockpit

Designed by Chuck Paine, this 1999 Bowman 48 Aft Cockpit represents one of the largest yachts from the renowned designer's portfolio. Built in fiberglass by Rival Bowman Yachts in Southampton, the boat measures 48 feet in length with a 14-foot beam, providing substantial volume and stability for extended cruising.

The layout includes two cabins and two heads, offering comfortable accommodation for cruising families or small groups. The aft cockpit configuration provides a practical working and entertaining space, typical of cruising designs from this era.

Power comes from a Nanni auxiliary diesel engine, enabling the yacht to motor in calm conditions while maintaining her primary identity as a sailing vessel. The design reflects Paine's philosophy of creating capable, seaworthy cruising yachts suited to ocean passages and extended voyages.
