Description
Same owner since 2008! She’s easy to show in Palm Beach Gardens. The owner wants this to be the next 48 Ocean sold; bring offers!
This 1988 48’ Ocean Yacht is ready to take you to the Bahamas, chase pelagics offshore, or entertain in comfort. The current owner had her prepped for a Bahamas summer before plans changed, so she’s fully serviced and ready to go mechanically.
