Remarks : Aquastar Ocean Star 48 (also known as Azure 48). Absolutely stunning and in its original ownership for nearly 10 years, having come out of the yard in 2008. Powered by the larger option Volvo D9 575HP diesels, with just 180 hours since new. Fantastic specification, including Bow and Stern Thrusters, stabilizers, generator, reverse cycle air conditioning, hydraulic crane/passarelle, tender and outboard. On deck there is teak throughout, and large rigid awning over the cockpit area with twin electric sunroofs, curved seating area and teak cockpit table. Sleeps up to six, with the emphasis on two large double cabins, each with their own climate controls. Beautifully appointed and spacious galley and dinette area forward of the saloon. Aquastar have done it again with the 48, and this is a lovely example of the Aquastar Ocean 48.
