Elegance just got faster

The C Class brings Princess style to a new range of centre console powerboats designed to take you to a new level of exhilaration. Combining thrilling performance with a walkaround layout, this is an experience crafted for sun-drenched days, adrenaline-fuelled adventures and an effortless connection to the sea.

At the heart of the C48 is Michael Peters’ patented SVVT hull, recognised worldwide for its efficiency, speed, and ride comfort. This advanced concept reduces drag and creates lift by channelling air beneath the running surface, significantly improving performance and fuel economy.

The full open main deck of the C48 Open is complemented by a hardtop and a thoughtfully arranged cockpit featuring an aft sunpad, forward-facing seating with table, and manually operated drop-down folding seats along the port and starboard sides. The exterior galley includes forward and aft wet bars with an electric grill, drawer fridge, sink, and ample storage. The helm station is fitted with triple seats, while the foredeck provides versatile seating both forward and aft.

Below deck, the standard layout includes a lower saloon with a convertible dinette, a lobby with storage and optional fridge/freezer, a day head, and an aft cabin. Options include a lower galley or a forward cabin in place of the saloon, allowing owners to tailor the interior to their lifestyle.
