Wauquiez Centurion 48 S (1999) For sale

The CENTURION 48 S is a boat built to cover miles and to sail far and fast : deep hull, three spreaders rig, a galley that can be used whilst navigation, sea berths in the cabins, a sheltered and compact cockpit, easily accessible liferaft storage on the transom… in short, everything you would expect from a seagoing boat. The two owners to date have done the brand proud. The boat has been very well looked after and has benefited from regular maintenance : replacement of the teak in 2016, the standing rigging in 2020, regular servicing of the heat exchanger, hull stripped and epoxy-coated in 2025, Volvo propeller shaft seal replaced in 2026, genoa replaced in 2026… Following two Atlantic crossings in 2025/2026, the boat is raring to set sail again with its new owners.

Owner speaks : After two and a half years of sailing on the JOUR, what stands out is the sense of safety offered by this yacht, which handles very well. The helm remains responsive, even when the wind picks up; the boat moves swiftly and straight, responding to the slightest adjustment of the sails. It is particularly fast, especially in a moderate wind. At the end of 2023, we decided to buy this yacht after viewing several dozen others. The solidity of its construction, particularly its rigging, was unrivalled compared to other yachts. The teak cladding on the exterior is very comfortable and attractive, and dates from 2016. But it was also the interior that sealed the deal. The quality of the teak panelling, the clever layout, and the br
