Princess C48 Open 2027: a new expression of the sports yacht

Conceived with clarity and restraint, the Princess C48 Open offers a more instinctive way to experience life at sea.

As the first expression of the new C Class, it brings a fresh openness to the unmistakable character of Princess. Generous proportions, clean lines and thoughtful craftsmanship create an atmosphere that feels composed, contemporary and entirely natural.

Light moves freely through the yacht, while each space flows gently into the next. This new 2027 model combines twin Volvo Penta diesel engines with an intimate two-cabin interior, balancing performance with a deep sense of comfort.

Nothing feels overstated, yet every detail is quietly present. A yacht defined not simply by how it looks, but by the ease and pleasure of being aboard.

Closer to the water

Exterior design of the Princess C48 Open

Clean in profile and generous in proportion, the Princess C48 Open creates an effortless dialogue between the deck and the sea.

A slender hardtop appears to float above the walkaround deck, preserving open views and a natural sense of movement. From bow to stern, each space follows the next with quiet precision, allowing light and the surrounding landscape to remain ever present.

Electrically powered side balconies lower seamlessly to deck level, extending the cockpit towards the water. Forward, a more intimate lounge offers a place of calm, while the aft sunpad, dining area and twin wet bars provide an understated setting for time shared outdoors.

The architecture never competes with its surroundings. It simply frames them.

 
 
The luxury of unhurried time

The onboard experience of the Princess C48 Open

The Princess C48 Open invites a more natural way of being at sea, where comfort is quietly present and every movement feels instinctive.

Throughout the day, the spaces adapt effortlessly to different moods. The forward lounge offers privacy and calm, the cockpit brings people together, while the expansive sunpad leaves room for light, silence and the gentle movement of the water.

At the helm, three individual seats allow the experience of navigation to be shared. Clear sightlines, intuitive controls and composed handling create an immediate sense of confidence.

From the first departure to the final anchorage, life aboard finds its own rhythm. Time slows, conversation comes easily and the sea remains quietly present.

A sense of calm within

Interior and comfort of the Princess C48 Open

Below deck, the atmosphere becomes quieter and more intimate. Light, proportion and natural materials come together with an effortless sense of balance.

Satin-finished walnut brings warmth and depth to the interior, complemented by softly integrated lighting and discreet storage. The lines remain pure and every detail contributes to a feeling of space that is both generous and composed.

The forward cabin offers the privacy of a beautifully proportioned double berth. Aft, a second cabin combines a double berth with an additional single, allowing up to five guests to stay aboard in comfort. An elegantly appointed bathroom completes the accommodation.

Air conditioning and carefully considered shading preserve the sense of calm throughout the day. Nothing is excessive; everything is chosen for how naturally it belongs.

Performance of the Princess C48 Open

Performance is expressed not only through speed, but through the ease, precision and confidence with which the yacht moves across the water.

Twin Volvo Penta D6-480 diesel engines deliver a combined 960 hp, giving the Princess C48 Open an estimated maximum speed of 33 to 35 knots. Power is paired with a patented stepped hull by Michael Peters Yacht Design, conceived to enhance hydrodynamic efficiency and create a more composed response at sea.

The helm feels clear and intuitive, allowing the yacht’s performance to be enjoyed without effort. A QUICK X13 stabiliser provides an additional sense of comfort and balance, both underway and at rest.

Nothing feels theatrical or excessive. Power is simply present, measured and entirely under control.
