2026 Schaefer V44

The Schaefer V44 is a 44-foot walkaround built on a fiberglass hull with a single-level cockpit design. Powered by triple outboard engines or sterndrives, the boat draws just 29 inches and displaces 8,700 kg. The beam spans 13.8 feet, providing a stable platform for day cruising with up to 14 passengers or overnight stays for four.

The boat centers on an expansive beach club layout. Two large hydraulic balconies, each 8 feet long, flank the transom and retract via hydraulic controls. A hydraulic platform extends further, creating multiple entertaining spaces and water access. This configuration transforms the V44 into a social hub designed for time on the water.

Below deck, overnight accommodation sleeps four comfortably and safely. Fresh water capacity stands at 275 liters, while fuel capacity reaches 1,650 liters for extended cruising. The 20-degree deadrise provides a balanced ride across varied sea states. Designed by Marcio Schaefer, the V44 continues the success of the V line with expanded capacity and functionality.
