1995 Ocean Alexander 546

Destination features a 3 stateroom - 3 head, galley up floorplan with a walk in engine room and a wide (16' 3") beam with high freeboards. She is a proper cruising yacht with flybridge and lower helm, wide walk-around side decks, and a large aft cockpit with transom door. Her engines were replaced in 2010 with new Caterpillar diesels with now only 2,100 original hours. She received a full exterior Awl-Craft paint job in 2023.

Destination has just completed a 9,000 mile round trip to the Sea of Cortez and back to Florida that began over 10 years ago and is ready to go again. Her systems have been serviced, her bottom paint just renewed, and the captains hit list of repairs completed after the voyage.

This is a quality cruising Yacht/Fisher with comfortable live-aboard space for a family. This boat has been Captain maintained since purchase and has only had three owners. She was repowered with Caterpillar 3126 engines in 2010 to assure reliability and increased range for the journey through the Panama Canal. She has Naiad stabilizers, a newer RIB dinghy with crane, water-maker, hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, 3000 Watt inverter and many other recent quality upgrades.

This is a very rare offering. The 546 Alexander is built on the same hull as the renowned Ocean Alexander 548 Raised Pilothouse and has an overall length of 63 feet with a generous 16' 3" beam. She is a proven heavy offshore cruiser with outstanding sea-keeping characteristics and a classic Teak interior.

Broker's Comments

Before, during, and after completing the voyage back to Florida from The Sea Of Cortez, Destination went through a rigorous updating of the systems aboard. She has just (6-2025) come out of the boat yard with fresh bottom paint, systems serviced, and compound and wax. There were no blisters found, (and no history of them).

While the boat is capable of higher speeds, she has always been operated as a trawler. At her 9 to 10 Knot cruising speed she averages 1 MPG operating at 1600 RPM'S. Thus the engines are not labored and their life expectancy is dramatically increased. She is an extremely comfortable cruising yacht and very stable. While she does have stabilizers, they are rarely needed and infrequently used.

She shows well, and is offered in turn key condition by an owner with an open check book for maintenance. Destination just completed the voyage that so many have only dreamed of, and is ready to go again.

There is no known damage history to the boat.
