FAIRLINE TARGA 48 – 1998 – SAME OWNER FOR 25 YEARS – FULL MONACO MARINE SERVICE HISTORY
This 1998 Fairline Targa 48 is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly well-maintained and carefully owned yacht. She has been in the hands of the same owner for the past 25 years, a remarkable sign of stability and responsible ownership. Throughout this entire period, the boat has been professionally serviced at Monaco Marine and maintained by the same mechanic, ensuring continuity, traceability and high technical standards year after year.
Powered by twin Volvo Penta TAMD 430 CHF engines delivering 430 HP each, with only 1264 and 1189 engine hours respectively, she offers strong, reliable performance. These Volvo diesel engines are widely known in the marine industry for their robustness and longevity, often exceeding several thousand hours when properly maintained. At this level of usage and with such consistent servicing, they remain in an excellent operational range. The engine room is clean, organized and reflects the serious mechanical follow-up the boat has benefited from. Maneuvering is made exceptionally easy thanks to both bow thruster and stern thruster, providing precise control in marinas and tight spaces. An HFL generator with only 44 hours complements the onboard autonomy.
The navigation equipment includes a Garmin GPS plotter, Raymarine autopilot, Raymarine depth sounder, radar, VHF and full engine instrumentation, offering a reliable and practical setup for both coastal cruising and longer passages. The helm station is ergonomic, with excellent visibility and the iconic Fairline Targa hardtop design providing protection and comfort in all weather conditions.
The yacht features a desirable 3-cabin layout, offering comfortable accommodation for family cruising or guests. She is equipped with air conditioning both forward and aft, heating, an integrated holding tank, TV, and a fully equipped galley including ceramic cooktop and microwave. The interior volumes are warm and functional, typical of Fairline’s build quality from this era.
The spacious teak cockpit is one of the major highlights of the Targa 48. It includes a large sunbed, convivial dining table, exterior galley with ceramic hob and sink, cockpit refrigerator, and a practical layout ideal for entertaining. At the stern, the integrated tender garage with launch system is a significant advantage, and the tender with Yamaha outboard is included in the sale, making anchoring and coastal exploration effortless.
This Fairline Targa 48 combines performance, comfort and pedigree. With a single long-term owner, 25 years of professional maintenance at Monaco Marine, low engine hours, generator with minimal use, bow and stern thrusters, air conditioning and full navigation package, she stands out as a secure and high-quality opportunity on today’s brokerage market. A serious, elegant and ready-to-cruise yacht that inspires confidence from the first visit.
