Broker's Comments

The 48' Chris-Craft 480 Cockpit Motor Yacht is a well-known design. There were several versions built under the Chris-Craft name and also the Uniflite Yacht Fisherman model.

The hull design is regarded as a great "sea boat". It handles well in a head sea as well as in a following sea.

This boat has been kept in fresh water for the last 5 years.

This roomy design makes for a great live aboard and is still a good cruising vessel. Two people can easily handle it because of the aft cockpit and spacious walkarounds. If you are locking-through, anchoring or just line handling while docking an individual can move easily from bow to stern.

With twin Caterpillar 3208 engines and Onan generator.
