Mainship Yachts

Introduced in 1990 and updated in 1993 with a new interior, the Mainship 47 was of the least expensive motor yachts in her class during her production years. With her distinctive appearance (note the unusual window treatment and aggressive bridge overhang), the Mainship 47 is a contemporary motoryacht design that came with a good deal of standard equipment. She rides on a conventional modified-V hull with cored hullsides and a relatively wide 15'5" beam. Originally offered with three staterooms, an alternate floorplan introduced in 1993 has two staterooms with the galley and dining area aft in the salon and a small office/communications center forward. The salon is very spacious and so is the forward stateroom, but the aft cabin (and the aft deck above) is small for a boat this size. A utility room housing the washer/dryer and workbench is forward of the engine room. Additional features include an underwater exhaust system, foredeck sun pad and light oak interior woodwork. Twin 485hp 6-71s cruise the Mainship 47 MY in the low 20s and reach a top speed of about 25 knots.
