The Selene brand of trawlers are extremely capable and there are now several hundred out cruising. By sales volume, the Selene 48 has been one of their most popular designs.   Highlander is hull number 21 in the series. She was ordered to accomplish what is most desirable for a cruising couple; two staterooms, dual side decks, stabilization, and thrusters. Her current owners have enjoyed and cruised the east coast and Southern California for the past 5 years, making improvements and fine tuning to keep her fresh. The owners’ family members have moved East, and they are moving back to land to be closer to them.  They have decided to put Highlander on the market and offer this amazing platform to allow someone else to take the helm and go exploring.

ACCOMMODATIONS & LAYOUT:

MAIN SALOON:

It is easy to understand why the Selene 48’s  dual side deck design is one of the most popular layouts among owner operators. From the cockpit and entering the main saloon through the Diamond Seaglaze Dutch door, a warm, large, and welcoming space shows off Highlander’s superb craftsmanship. A built-in entertainment center houses a Vizio 24” flat screen TV, which is accompanied by an Alpine entertainment system. Seating accommodations include an L shaped settee to port, and twin chairs to starboard. Hatches in the galley/saloon sole provide quick and easy access to the engine room machinery space below.
