About

The Open version keeps the main deck as airy as possible. A hardtop and wraparound windscreen give shelter while the cockpit remains wide open, arranged with an aft sunpad, forward-facing seating around a table, and fold-down seats along the sides. Twin wet bars with grill, fridge, and sink make it easy to stay outside all day, while the foredeck adds another versatile seating area. At the helm, three seats sit side by side with clear views forward.

Below, the layout starts with a convertible saloon, aft cabin, and day head. Owners can switch the saloon for a forward cabin or add a lower galley, tailoring the space to different cruising styles.

Performance comes in two options: triple Mercury V10 400hp outboards deliver 44-46 knots, or triple Mercury V12 600hp outboards push speeds to 52-54 knots. That makes the C48 the fastest Princess ever built. Buyers exploring Princess C48 Open OB for sale will also want to look at the broader Princess C48 OB Deck Saloon version for those who prefer enclosed comfort. Together, they mark Princess’s entry into the high-performance centre-console market.
