Oceanis 48 — Greece A cruising monohull that makes its case through balance rather than bravado. The Oceanis 48 is known for holding her line under a full press of sail — stable, well-mannered, genuinely rewarding to sail rather than simply be aboard. The kind of yacht that lets guests take the helm for an hour on the passage between islands and come back down the companionway pleased with themselves. Below, five cabins accommodate up to twelve guests. Four are arranged with a double bed; the fifth is fitted with bunk beds, which makes the layout as workable for two or three families sharing as it is for a group of friends splitting a week in the Cyclades or the Ionian. The interior volume and the deck plan are what set this size of Oceanis apart: room to spread out in the cockpit, sensible circulation on deck, and living space below that doesn't feel borrowed from the sailing performance. Chartered with crew, so the navigation, the anchorages and the daily logistics are handled — leaving the decisions that matter to you: which bay to spend the afternoon in, and how long to stay. Greece is the cruising ground, and few yachts of this type suit it better.
