Shafts are gone, and our test boat sported Cummins QSC 8.3 diesel engines deploying their 600hp apiece through Zeus pod drives.<br><img src="http://www.mby.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2014/04/1156.jpg"><h2>1156.JPG</h2>The sleek superstructure gives the Power 48 a distinct look. <br><img src="http://www.mby.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2014/04/1113.jpg"><h2>1113.JPG</h2>Finished in black and silver, the redesigned boat looks spectacular.<br><img src="http://www.mby.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2014/04/1100.jpg"><h2>1100.JPG</h2>The aft seating area on the Elan makes for a perfect spot to enjoy the view.<br><img src="http://www.mby.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2014/04/756.jpg"><h2>756.JPG</h2>The dinette runs to the port with the galley opposite. <br><img src="http://www.mby.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2014/04/708.jpg"><h2>708.JPG</h2>Below decks is this dead space, which might have been a better place to fit the galley. <br><img src="http://www.mby.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2014/04/714.jpg"><h2>714.JPG</h2>The guest suite is situated in the mid cabin, going without a full-beam owners cabin that we have come to expect from 48-footers.<br>
