Overview
"MERLION" 50 OCEAN ALEXANDER MK I
The Ocean Alexander Mark I is a timeless design by Ed Monk, and has somewhat of a cult status with the Pacific coast cruisers.
MERLION
presents the opportunity to purchase a "turn-key" Mark I on the east
coast where only a handful have been offered for sale in the last ten
years (approx 100 were built). Owner recently brought her down from
Connecticut for the season (Nov 2021).
Built
with a solid fiberglass hull, Merlion has had her Engines & Fuel
Tanks replaced, and her Naiads upgraded to Multi-Sea II system.
She also offers Bow & Stern Thrusters, New Windlass and a 12' Carolina Skiff for a Tender.
Merlion
is a proven Passagemaker ready for your inspection and to take you
anywhere. She is being maintained and upgraded constantly. A detailed
Maintenance Log & Ships Library are onboard.
