For anchoring, the Lynx 48 is equipped with Vulcan and Rocna anchors, delivering maximum holding power on any seabed. Its propulsion system, featuring Autoprop blades and Betamarine engines, ensures efficiency and reliability for long-distance travel.

The construction of the Lynx 48 sailboat is currently in progress, with every detail being meticulously crafted. While the exterior design and structural integrity are already well-defined, the interior of the vessel remains customizable to meet the future owner’s preferences. An initial layout, thoughtfully designed by the expert team at Hutting Yachts, is available for reference, showcasing optimal space utilization and functionality. However, the future owner has the freedom to personalize the interior to suit their specific needs and tastes, whether by adjusting cabin layouts, selecting materials, or incorporating custom features.
