Thank you Team MBandY for this nice show of the Absolute 48 Coupe with the nice parking system very unique and a must in these day a good solar penal on the roof thank you
Nice video, Jack. One minor correction: the engines are the Volvo Penta D6-IPS 650 (not the larger D11-IPS 950), though you properly stated the horsepower as 480 each, as well as the model in the voice over intro.
Lacking in mass ("no replacement for displacement") but this can be compensated for using a sea-keeper gyro-stabilizer which should come standard on any mono-hull and especially given current pricing.
Thanks for the review Jack 👍
Looks like a great boat with some neat touches. I’d happily upgrade to that from our much older 48’
Jack IPS 950 has 725 hp , i think you mean IPS650 @480 hp
Nice video, cant wait to see the new 56 FLY, these boats will change the boating industry.
I'm sure I will have to wait a long time till they arrive in the US.
Thank you for the video mate appreciate it.
This is my new favorite boat! Absolutely stunning!🥂
I have to agree with you :)
Great coverage of this boat and its features!
Cool boat Jack. Thanks 😊
Great review. Been looking forward to seeing this boat.
Looks like a great family cruiser.
Absolute got themselves a winner! Great boat!
Excellent video Jack and a beutiful boat
Lovely yacht, thanks
Abolut brilliant review 👍👍👍
Good review mate
Did you mean to say IPS 650 not 950? 650 matches up with the horsepower quote that you gave.
What an awesome boat. A good liveaboard maybe. Might be a good Bahamas run boat, however the range isn't there, but if you dropped the speed you could probably get there. Smart, spacious and versatile, good looking too. Basically it's me as a boat! Lol
Nice...
- Å fan! 👍
I think the lack of a sunroof will cost them sales.
Rather have the solar cells
Does it have gyro? I think I saw a Navetta 48 with a gyro.
Could have been a retro fit i don't think they come with gyro.
At stabilizer?
You meant IPS650 not 950 right?….I could live with the styling easier if they really where IPS 950’s!!!!!!!
I mean, they are Italian I kinda expect better styling…..but it’s still less offensive than the big Princess and Sunseeker 100 plus footers!!!!!!….I suspect this boats styling would look better proportioned at 50 -60 ft in length.
Too big for solo skippers?
I suppose the camera system and assisted docking mean a solo skipper would be OK
Catering for the blind boat owner judging by its styling
I think I would not get the deck furniture, instead buy folding deck chairs.
View at the beginning, slight seas but the boat has an excess of rock and roll. Not ideal if moored and trying to enjoy a glass or two of sparkling
3 seconds in and I already feel the need to crap in about your audio inconsistency yet again.
Looks a bit trawler-ish.
