About this yacht
Perfect Liveaboard or Great Loop Boat!!!
This 1987 Hi-Star 48 Sundeck "Hold My Pier" is the perfect boat to call home. A popular and reasonably priced boat during her production years, the Hi-Star 48 Sundeck was a top-of-the-line Taiwan import with a reputation for durable construction, superb engineering, and a comfortable ride. She’s built on a conventional modified-V hull with moderate beam, Airex-cored hullsides, and a solid fiberglass bottom.
Inside, the Hi-Star 48 has the traditional all-teak interior common to most Asian boats. Where many motor yachts this size have three staterooms, the Hi-Star has a two-stateroom floorplan with the galley and dinette down. This is a very wide-open layout with big staterooms and a full-size dinette, but the forward head compartment lacks a separate stall shower. Outside, the aft deck is large enough for plenty of deck furnishings, and wide side decks provide easy access to the foredeck. Additional features include a hardtop, molded bow pulpit, aft deck wet bar, and a notably well-arranged engine room. A good performer with standard 375hp Cats, the Hi-Star 48 will cruise 18–19 knots.
She has been lovingly cared for by her current owners and has spent a considerable portion of her life here on the Bay and up in the DC area. She provides the perfect spot on the water to vacation with the family or to be used as a primary or secondary home on the water.
While she has a rich gorgeous wood interior, she also boats a very comfortable level of equipment:
