An outstanding addition to the most highly regarded line-up of performance sportfishing boats in the world, the Cabo 48 brings a superb layout which allows for three spacious staterooms and two heads. Indeed, the 48's design stems directly from feedback and requests from Cabo owners. What's more, the first three hulls were sold to customers who wanted a boat with three staterooms , but only if it had the Cabo name and everything that came with it. It speaks volumes  that Cabo yachts are held in such high regard that customers return asking for boats that Cabo hasn't made yet simply because these sportsmen won't buy from any other builder. Customer loyalty and trust in Cabo quality? You bet!

A true sportfishing machine 
What else you can count on is the same outstanding performance and handling characteristics as the 48's forerunner, the Cabo 47 Flybridge.

Step into the cockpit and it's immediately apparent why she's the perfect platform for fishing or cruising with friends or family. The cockpit is large with room for multiple anglers to maneuver their fish to the corners. The attention to detail is evidence that Cabo has listened well to the needs of tournament anglers.

The placement of essentials like bait freezers, livewells, drawers for rigging tools, cabinets for gaff and bait nets - all are well thought out by experienced blue water anglers. Twin fish boxes are molded into the cockpit sole and equipped with in-line macerators, full length piano hinges, gas struts and rubber gaskets.

Padded bolsters ring the cockpit for extra comfort and security when using a standup rig.

Lures and rigging equipment are easily organized in drawers at the rigging station, which includes a prep sink, bait chest and optional bait freezer.

Port and starboard cabinets running  nearly the length of the cockpit provide additional storage. The livewell, located in the transom to minimize intrusion into valuable cockpit space, features a waist height opening and is lit for nighttime use.
