Celestial 48
3 / 13 - score 52%
The Celestial 48 is a 50.0ft masthead ketch designed by Brewer/Fuhriman and built in fiberglass by Xiamen Celestial Yacht Ltd between 1984 and 2001.
The Celestial 48 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is excellent. There is an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
