1998 Wauquiez 48 Pilot Saloon

Saint Thomas

$225,000

The Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 48 is a blue water cruiser noted for exceptional sailing performance, with ease and comfort. She is a true deck saloon with a raised sole and large windows, allowing panoramic views from the pilot station and saloon. Below the saloon deck is an expansive engine and mechanical room. Toller furling, electric winches, self-tacking jib, and control lines leading aft to the cockpit, make her an extremely easy boat to sail shorthanded. In addition, a second, interior helm station allows her to be driven from below decks.

She has been meticulously maintained and updated by her current owner.
