Broker's Comments

Four Winns Boats, started in 1975 by four of the Winn family (father and 3 brothers), are based in Michigan, USA and are well known for their Bowrider style of sports powerboats. The Four Winns 248, although one of their smaller models, is cleverly designed to maximise the usable space without compromising her sleek profile.

On deck she has a good sized aft cockpit area with several configurations for seating or sunbathing. The helm position gives good visibility and the foredeck is accessed 'bowrider style' by folding back the windscreen section and stepping through. There is plenty of deck space forward and an electric windlass takes the hard work out of anchoring

Below is surprisingly spacious: an aft cabin fits a good sized double berth with light and ventilation and the saloon converts from seating to sleeping easily if required. She has a compact galley with microwave and a stove and ample storage for weekending and the heads opposite is practical and has an electric head and shower attachment to supplement the cockpit shower on the transom.

This is a boat you could have a lot of fun with! Quick and powerful enough for water sports yet well equipped for longer cruises and overnighting in comfort
