Powerboat of the Year: Menorquín 48 FB - the art of Mediterranean boatbuilding
The Menorquín 48 FB Surf was voted Powerboat of the Year 2026 in the category up to 18 metres in length. All about the award and votes for the election can be found here...
The shipyard on Menorca has remained true to its philosophy for more than five decades: instead of floating palaces of ostentation, it produces understated boats with character and soul. The Menorquín 48 FB is the perfect example of this approach. It combines the classic shapes of traditional Mediterranean boats with sophisticated modern technology such as the hydraulic bathing platform.
Charm through loving details
The exterior design is consistently based on historical models from the Mediterranean region. At the stern, there is a true-to-original mount for a rudder that was once attached - purely decorative today, but a charming detail that authentically reflects the boat's maritime origins. The wooden stem at the bow has also been reproduced with great care and emphasises the traditional character.
Lots of high-quality wood, light-coloured upholstery and loving craftsmanship characterise the appearance of the Menorquín FB. Lovers of traditional craftsmanship and natural materials will get their money's worth here. The stylish impression continues below deck and creates a harmonious overall picture that radiates authenticity and quality.
Riding characteristics of the Sasga Menorquín 48 FB
In addition to its aesthetic quality, the Menorquín FB also scores highly on the water. The traditionally shaped hull has excellent sailing characteristics and impressively proves that proven design principles still have their place today.
