Broker Overview

This 2021 Ocean Alexander 27 Explorer presents a compelling opportunity for a buyer seeking a modern, well-built yacht capable of extended cruising. At 88 feet, this vessel offers a substantial platform with a four-stateroom, four-head layout, plus dedicated crew quarters, making it highly suitable for private use or charter. The twin MAN D2862LE456 engines provide reliable power, and while specific hours aren't listed, the 1,000-hour service being completed in August 2025 indicates proactive maintenance. The yacht's fiberglass hull, a hallmark of Ocean Alexander construction, ensures durability and a comfortable ride. Key features include bow and stern thrusters for enhanced maneuverability, a well-appointed flybridge with a hardtop and retractable sunroof, and a versatile stern platform for tender and toy deployment. The inclusion of Sidepower hydraulic zero-speed stabilizers, despite the initial listing stating 'None', is a significant comfort feature for both underway and at anchor. This 27E is positioned as a turnkey vessel, meticulously maintained, and represents a strong value proposition in the current market for a yacht of its size and pedigree.

Considerations

Fuel consumption, while efficient for its class, is a consideration for long passages.

The sheer size of an 88-foot yacht requires skilled handling and docking.

While turnkey, an incoming owner may wish to personalize some interior decor.

These are broker observations, not deal-breakers. Every yacht has trade-offs — a good broker helps you weigh them.

Expert Review

The Ocean Alexander 27 Explorer is a robustly built vessel, known for its solid fiberglass construction and thoughtful engineering. These yachts are designed for serious cruising, offering excellent sea-keeping capabilities and a comfortable ride in varying conditions. The hull design provides stability, and with the confirmed Sidepower hydraulic zero-speed stabilizers, this particular 27E will offer enhanced comfort both underway and at anchor. Value for money on a 2021 model at this price point is strong, considering the build quality and amenities. During a survey, focus on the operational condition of the MAN engines, the hydraulic systems for the stabilizers and thrusters, and the functionality of all navigation and entertainment electronics. Pay close attention to the stern platform mechanism and ensure all tender launching systems are in top order. Comparables might include certain models from Horizon or Hatteras, but the Ocean Alexander often stands out for its interior volume and finish quality.
