The Yamarin 88 Day Cruiser is the flagship of the Yamarin range: a full 8.8 metres of premium day cruising capability, styled with the bold confidence that only the largest boat in the line-up can carry. Black graphic detailing, large tinted hull windows and a black windshield frame give the 88 DC a distinctly premium character that is immediately apparent at the dock and from a distance on the water.

Twin outboard power — from the Yamaha F300 twin through to the XF450 V8 — delivers performance to match the looks. With a maximum speed of 49 knots and hydraulic steering as standard, the 88 DC covers open-water passages with authority while remaining agile and rewarding to drive at all speeds.

The spacious cabin is accessed through a lockable sliding door and flooded with natural light from large openable hull windows, a roof hatch and a skylight. It is fully equipped for extended stays: a built-in galley with a Wallis 800 stove and 45-litre fresh-water system, a wooden clothes locker, generous stowage beneath the berth, and an electric head with a 30-litre holding tank. Two adults can sleep comfortably aboard, genuinely independent of shore facilities.

Above deck, the generously proportioned cockpit accommodates up to ten people around its cushioned seating arrangements. A cockpit table is included as standard equipment, making it a natural gathering place for meals at anchor or drinks in the evening.

The Flexiteek deck finish throughout the cockpit and swimming platforms gives the 88 DC a premium, superyacht-inspired look underfoot while remaining practical and easy to maintain. The wide, ergonomic swimming platforms on both sides of the stern provide safe footing for boarding from a pontoon or returning from the water, with fixed steps ensuring confident access at all times. The Deluxe Package adds a water-skiing arch that doubles as a structural support railing for the platforms — a welcome addition for active families.

Twin battery system, LED deck lights and full interior lighting ensure the 88 DC is as capable after dark as it is in full sun. The Yamarin Q smart display brings electronic navigation charts, engine data and boat management to a single touchscreen directly in front of the helmsman. Optional factory extras include a second Q-display, bow thruster, air conditioning, additional electronics and audio upgrades.
