The Wauquiez Pilot Saloon 48-2 represents a sophisticated evolution in the French shipyard’s legendary deck saloon lineage. Launched as the successor to the Pilot Saloon 47, this model utilizes the same hull mold as its predecessor but introduces a completely redesigned deck and interior architecture. Crafted by Berret-Racoupeau Yacht Design, the Pilot Saloon 48-2 is engineered for long-distance bluewater cruising, emphasizing a high-volume living experience without sacrificing the sailing "feel" that Wauquiez owners demand. The "48-2" designation distinguishes the refined production run that followed the initial 2015 launch, featuring updated deck hardware and cabinetry finishes.
