2016 Formula 45 Yacht

This 2016 Formula 45 Yacht is an express cruiser built on a fiberglass hull measuring 48 feet in length with a 14-foot beam. Twin Volvo Penta IPS 600 diesel engines, each producing 435 horsepower, deliver approximately 870 total hp and achieve a top speed over 30 knots. The IPS drive system includes joystick control with dynamic positioning, simplifying close-quarters maneuvering. The yacht cruises efficiently at around 27 knots with a range of approximately 230 nautical miles.

The open helm layout features an uncluttered design with twin 15-inch Raymarine multifunction displays, analog fuel gauges, and a double-wide helm seat with individual flip-up bolsters. A removable enclosure protects the helm deck from the elements. The salon offers nearly 7 feet of headroom with an L-shaped galley across from a U-shaped settee and hardwood table. An opening side-window design maximizes ventilation. The galley includes Corian counters, a stainless steel double sink with swivel faucet, stacked refrigerator and freezer units, concealed dual-burner stove, and convection microwave. A 46-inch flat-screen TV paired with a BOSE home theater system provides entertainment.

Two cabins provide sleeping accommodation. The forward master stateroom features a queen-size berth with memory foam mattress, ample clothes storage, opening portholes, and a full-length mirror. The starboard-side head includes an electric flush toilet, large mirrored bulkhead, deep basin sink, and separate shower stall. The guest suite offers two convertible twin berths, wall-mounted flat-screen TV, opening portholes, and a private head with separate toilet and shower.

The aft cockpit features a U-shaped settee with removable table seating six, and an outward-facing convertible sunpad. A wet bar includes hot and cold water, trash bin, and refrigerator with mounted flat-screen TV above. An electric grill finishes the counter area. The bow has two large convertible sunloungers measuring 6 feet 8 inches long by 2 feet 10 inches wide. A hydraulic swim platform and synthetic teak enhance the exterior. The yacht is equipped with a 13.5 kilowatt generator, full Raymarine electronics suite including radar and autopilot, air conditioning (30,000 BTU total), LED lighting throughout, electric opening sunroof, electric transom hatch, and retractable sun awning on stainless steel frame. Navigation safety features include a Lewmar windlass with stainless steel anchor chute and remote control spotlight at the bow.
