General

Built on a foundation of vinylester resin with marine-grade structural foam, this yacht leverages high-density cores for superior high-temperature resistivity and exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation, a specification usually found only in vessels over 100 feet. A reinforced collision bulkhead and fiberglass construction executed with infusion lamination manufacturing technology underscore the integrity of the build, while S/S hardware throughout speaks to enduring quality. The main deck carries 2-inch elliptical 316L stainless steel handrails and stanchions, with 1-1/2-inch rails on the FB; the elliptical profile conforms better to the human grip than traditional round rails, delivering greater grip strength for safety and comfort (Unique OA feature). All exterior hardware is stainless steel 316 or installed to exacting manufacturer requirements. Ocean Alexander employs proprietary strategies to reduce sound and vibration, delivering a quiet, comfortable yachting environment through multiple insulation barriers that include reflective, absorptive, and dampening materials, as well as air pockets with flexible and isolation mounts—achieving vibration and sound levels that are industry-leading and at times one-half to one-tenth of ISO-6954 requirements (Unique OA feature). Weather-tight bulkheads further enhance sound attenuation and temperature insulation. The exterior is faired and finished in professional-grade Alexseal polyurethane paint over epoxy-based primers, chosen for its highest gloss and remarkable color retention versus gelcoat or other paint brands (Unique OA standard feature, not an optional upcharge like competitors). Marine-grade aluminum beams lend greater rigidity to create a monolithic structure that reduces movement and “abrasive” sounds underway, while enabling one of the largest uninterrupted glass spans in the industry (Unique OA feature). Cross-knit directional carbon fiber is applied in high-stress areas for added structural integrity and torsional strength. A fiberglass staircase rises from the cockpit to the FB with finely finished teak steps.

Hull/bottom

The underwater profile is anchored by a solid fiberglass hull bottom for steadfast strength, protected by a white vinyl rub rail with a stainless steel insert. Below the waterline, the running surface receives three coats of Seahawk primer, a high-build epoxy barrier coat, and a further three coats of Seahawk self-polishing bottom paint, a robust anti-fouling regimen that is a Unique OA feature and only an option among competitors. All through-hull fittings are bronze for proven durability in the marine environment.

Main engines

MAIN ENGINES: Twin Caterpillar C18 1150HP engines deliver trusted power, managed from two control stations—FB and PH—with complete engine instrumentation and illuminated, modern switches. Current engine hours are approximately 929 and 940. Electric engine controls pair with an engine alarm system monitoring oil pressure and temperature for confident operation. Intake and exhaust fans with a de-mister scrub moisture from intake airflow, keeping machinery spaces dry, while manually controlled, adjustable and reversible Delta‑T fans for engine exhaust are mounted in the superstructure instead of the hull side to maximize protection from water and salt spray, resulting in safer, lower-maintenance ownership (Unique OA feature). Exhaust is wet, with water temperature, oil pressure, hour meters, and start/stop controls in the engine room, complemented by remote start/stop in the pilothouse. A Side Power Vector Fin Stabilizer system takes power off both engines for redundancy (Unique OA feature) and provides zero-speed stabilization for comfort at rest. Monolithic stainless steel engine beds lend added stability and strength to the mounts, and stainless steel safety rails run alongside each engine.
