Vessel Overview / Full Description

This 2024 VanDutch 48 (Hull #137) represents an exceptional market opportunity to acquire an as-new, highly optioned luxury day yacht without the wait for a new build.

Originally ordered and delivered in November 2024, this unit served briefly and occasionally as a dedicated chase boat for a 43m superyacht. Maintained to the highest standards by a full-time professional crew, the vessel has logged only 200 engine hours and presents in immaculate condition. Full ceramic coating applied to both the cream hull and synthetic teak deck ensures superior gloss retention and ease of maintenance.

Key Upgrades & Custom Features

Unlike standard production models, this VD48 was retrofitted in 2024 with a Seakeeper Gyro Stabilizer, drastically reducing roll at anchor and ensuring maximum comfort for guests during open-water transfers.

Powered by upgraded twin Volvo Penta D11-725 HP diesel engines paired with a Volvo Joystick system, she delivers outstanding open-sea performance, responsive handling, and smooth maneuvering in tight quarters.

Interior & Layout

Configured with the desirable "Sleep" interior layout (Option V8-F096), the cabin features high-end Champagne White upholstery with custom piping, climate control, an enclosed head with shower, and accommodation for overnight stays or comfortable daytime relaxing.
