Thread: 48 Yachtfish

  1. #1

    48 Yachtfish

    My wife and I are new to the powerboat scene and are interested in the 48 Yachtfish that is located in Bradenton, FL and listed on Yachtworld. We plan to use her for coastal cruising a few months each year. I’m on the other side of the country and before I travel to look at her, I was wondering if any of you know the boat or could provide me with info I should consider. Thanks.

    As a guy that is just barely ahead of you in your quest. I recommend that you hire someone to take a quick look at it unless you just want a mini vacation with no expectations.

    Unless you're planning to leave it on the east coast, I can't imagine a cost effective option to get it back to the west coast. Haven't looked in a while, but there was a 48YF up around Seattle as I recall.

    not sure if the one in seattle sold, but its not listed anymore. was a nice looking boat. there's one down in newport ca that's also nice. one thing that caught my eye on the one in fla, is the blower on the stb engine is the orig dd color. if it was a rebuild, it should've been painted same color (white) as the engine, so what was done to the engine(s)? and are there receipts?

    We are a few months into an 18 month refit of our '72. If you come across another 48 YF, reach out with any questions.

    I know this thread is old but I am not far from bradenton. Honestly, a few years early for me personally or I would go look at this boat for myself. If you are still interested and want me to put some hands on it, I am happy to do so.

    Funny, just saw this thread. We had been to Riviera Dunes and were headed to Marlow. I think I saw this boat out in front of Twin Dolphin Marina as these are fairly rare. We were on the 8th floor deck at the Oak and Stone looking out over the sound (go there for lunch if you are in the area great view and good food). I will be back in the area in a few weeks and could take a look.
