The C108 meets the needs of ambitious cruisers who relish the simplicity and range of speeds offered by outboard power. While we increased the beam to 10 feet 8 inches, we kept the length overall under 40 feet, which greatly expanded the interior accommodation space while still allowing the boat to trailered. With a combined boat and trailer towing weight of approximately 12,500 pounds (with an aluminum trailer), the C108 can be easily towed by a standard three-quarter ton pickup truck. This boat is ideal for snowbirds and offers tremendous flexibility, whether one wants to haul out for the winter or transport their C108 to new and different cruising areas on their own. The expansive layout for the C108 features a large new salon has been finished with fine teak by Aspen’s experienced craftsman—we’ve managed to fit 30 percent more liveable space in than on some previous Aspen models. Full-height wraparound Solar Guard windows provide exceptional lines of sight while underway.

The twin Bentley helm seats and the 5-person C-shaped dinette keep owners and guests comfortable. The 12-foot-long galley includes an oven-stove combo, microwave, stainless steel sink, and multiple Burmese teak drawers. Accommodation space is unparalleled for a boat this size and includes three private cabins with an expansive head with shower, and a master suite complete with a king-size berth. Multiple hatches and portholes bring in ventilation and light when not running heat or air conditioning.
