The 2023 VanDutch 48 is a fiberglass cruiser built to custom specification, powered by twin Volvo Penta diesel engines rated at 1,450 horsepower combined. The boat reaches 38 knots at full throttle and cruises comfortably at 30 knots. Twin thrusters, joystick engine controls, and a fully-automated electric anchor system make handling straightforward. A 9kW Kohler generator provides independent power.
The open-plan layout prioritizes outdoor entertaining and comfort. The expansive cockpit features seating for at least 16, integrated bar with refrigerator, ice maker, and twin sinks, plus substantial storage hatches. An automated bimini top with extension sunshade provides weather protection. The hydraulic swim platform lowers access to the water. Below, the cabin contains two cabins and one head with separate shower. The main galley includes refrigerator, sink, and microwave, while the lounge area features a hi-lo table and sliding door enclosure for flexibility.
Customizations include upgraded 725 HP engines, synthetic teak flooring in grey and white, custom Audi Nardo Grey hull paint, and ice white upholstery with titanium piping. The boat has a flatscreen television and a refrigerator integrated into the deck cockpit table. Recent service records document engine and generator maintenance, underwater paint and zinc replacement, hull detailing, seal work on the rudder and shaft, and winterization procedures completed through December 2025.
