Remarks
A well-presented Four Winns 248 Vista, built in 2004, offering comfortable accommodation for up to four, making her an ideal choice for weekends away and coastal cruising. Powered by a Volvo Penta KAD32 170hp diesel engine coupled to a DuoProp stern drive, she cruises comfortably at 18 knots with a top speed of approximately 25 knots. The engine has completed just 388 hours as at 10 October 2026 and was serviced in May 2026.
The accommodation includes a comfortable saloon, a galley with an electric hob and fridge, and a separate heads compartment with a 60-litre holding tank and pressurised hot and cold water. With approximately 6ft headroom, she offers practical and comfortable overnight accommodation.
Last out of the water in September 2025, when the anodes were replaced and the hull polished, she has been in her current ownership since 2019. Now offered for sale as her owner looks to move up to a larger boat, she is well worth viewing.

A horseshoe-shaped seating area provides a comfortable space for dining and relaxing, with a removable table that converts the area into a generous double berth. The well-equipped galley features a moulded worktop, inset sink, electric hob, large fridge and built-in microwave.
The separate heads compartment includes a sea toilet with a 60 litre holding tank, hot shower and washbasin with vanity unit. A comfortable aft double berth benefits from a privacy curtain, ventilation and 12V reading lights. Additional features include full cabin heating via an Eberspächer D2 unit and a TV, making this a welcoming and practical space for weekends and extended stays aboard.

She has a 265-litre dieselplastic fuel tank

History & Construction
The current owner has enjoyed this Four Winns 248 Vista for the past seven years and has kept her in clean and tidy condition, with light use during his ownership.

Viewing is highly recommended.
This GRP motor cruiser has a planing hull, finished in white high-gloss gelcoat to the hull and superstructure, complemented by a blue styling stripe. The non-slip foredeck is accessed via the split, hinged windscreen. The spacious cockpit features wraparound padded seating that converts into a sunpad, together with a full cockpit canopy with removable panels, reported to be in good condition.
