Broker's Comments

The Four Winns 248 Vista is a great American Sports Cruiser. With her well appointed helm position comfortably seats 3/4 while aft of this is a six seater "U" shaped 'lounge' with table. This area also converts to a double berth if needed, beneath the substantial all over cockpit cover. Going forward into the saloon there is a well equipped galley and a roomy heads compartment, the headroom is 6ft and six people could lounge around the saloon table. The V berth forward converts to a roomy double while the 'owners' cabin aft is a cosy den. Performance wise this boat will happily potter along at 5kts and will frugally burn half gph. Wind her up to a top speed of 34 kts and she'll fly but an economical cruise of 24kts should return around 4-6 gph. With her sub 9ft beam and holding tanks she is very suitable for both inland waterways and the sea.
