One of the most popular models by Ocean Alexander. This 3 stateroom 2 head/shower vessel is the perfect boat for coastal cruising or spending long weekends in the Bahamas or where ever you choose to go. Powered with 500hp Yanmars that only have 1200 hours on them she moves nicely at 20kt cruise and a 25kt top end and is easy to maneuver with a bow thruster.
The vessel is much newer than her age and has been cared for by an owner with pride of ownership. This vessel has many upgrades from the standard model, luxury package to include carpeting, double boxed window frames, molded steps, WATERMAKER 240 GAL/DAY, NEW NORTHERN LIGHTS 12KW GENTERATOR, the list goes on and on.
You must see this boat to truly appreciate her style and performance. Call today to set up a tour. This Sedan is built upon a sophisticated and efficient hull design. The vessel balances superior performance with a spacious, well appointed interior, perfect for many seasons of comfortable cruising. The 48' affords true comfort while being onboard.
Ocean Alexander’s history spans the revolution in Taiwanese yacht building that began in earnest in the 1970s. While the Taiwanese initially competed in terms of value, today a new generation of craftsmen and artisans produce some of the finest boats in their respective markets. Ocean Alexander’s Altus series combines this earned wisdom and the economy of building in Mainland China. The line allows Ocean Alexander to extend its brand and preserve its image.
Naval architect Ed Monk Jr. developed the profiles and general arrangements of this 48, as he has for Ocean Alexander’s designs from the beginning. The result is a pleasing blend of conservative West Coast proportion with a touch of European influence. The subtle rise of her chine forward and her modest flam and flare are sensible and what you would expect from Monk. Her straight sheer and sweptback superstructure are more challenging and create a contemporary look.
Her interior layout reflects the demands of American clients. The headroom, seating and berths are geared to American yachtsmen. The main cabin is open and airy. Pathways are not chiseled through built-in furniture, and the galley is not cloistered in a pit or hidden behind a partition, as is the case with some European-inspired designs. Anyone who is familiar with Ocean Alexander’s well-executed interiors will be pleased with the look and feel of the 48’s satin finished Burmese teak interior.
The saloon is aft, the galley and interior helm station a step above and forward. Belowdecks, the master stateroom is forward. The guest staterooms, one with a queen and one with upper and lower berths, share the second head.
"Summertime's" Luxury Package ($16,500) includes granite countertops, upgraded soft goods and an upgraded entertainment center, featuring a 42-inch plasma screen TV on a lift. Sher also has the optional Air-conditioning Package ($25,000), which included an upgraded generator that was recently replaced with a 12kw Northern Lights.
In a compromise to styling, her low profile doesn’t allow deck access adjacent to the interior helm: you must go through the cockpit. Full walk-around side decks will make the 48 easy to handle.
Monk has left space in the cockpit for a table and chairs, and incorporated a transom door for access to the platform. The bridge includes a control station with helm and companion seating and a lounge area with a table. 'Summertime" has the wet bar with a refrigerator, sink and barbecue are optional ($3,960). Since there is no boat deck, carrying a tender will require a transom davit.
All construction materials, machinery and equipment are imported. Marine plywood and interior hardware are shipped from Europe, fiberglass materials, system components and appliances come primarily from the United States. In my view, this is one of the advantages of boats built in the Far East: pumps, float switches, appliances and other expendable stuff are readily available in the United States.
Ocean Alexander builds the 48 in female tooling, using a combination of stitched and woven fiberglass reinforcements set in polyester and vinylester resins. A network of cored fiberglass stringers and resin-coated plywood bulkheads supports the hull. Balsa core, vacuum bagged into place, stiffens the topsides, decks and superstructure and reduces weight above the waterline. Exterior surfaces are finished in gelcoat.
Her engineroom is abaft the accommodations and is separated from the lazarette by a door. Access is possible from a hatch in the main cabin or a hatch in the cockpit sole. To facilitate major work, a portion of the cabin sole can be removed. Fuel is carried in aluminum wing tanks abaft the engines, and water is carried in stainless-steel tanks in the lazarette. Electrical and plumbing systems follow American Boat & Yacht Council recommendations. This familiar standard should help reduce the cost of labor in U.S. boatyards-where time is money.
Sleeps six owners and guests in three staterooms each ensuite heads.
The MASTER STATEROOM is in the bow and features a centerline queen berth including designer soft goods, bedspread, pillows and shams. A 32" Vizio TV is built into the aft bulkhead. there are twin cedar-lined hanging lockers. Starboard just aft of the master is a private ensuite MASTER HEAD with granite counter tops, a large stall shower and a Vacuflush toilet.
