This 1997 Offshore Yachts Sedan, measures 48 ft, and is located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, powered by 2x Caterpillar 3126-TA 420.00HP.
ISLAND GIRL is a classic 48' Offshore Sedan offering the comfortable ride, practical layout, and quality construction that have made Offshore Yachts so well respected among experienced cruisers.
