This 1983 Ocean Alexander MK1 is a 50-foot fiberglass pilothouse trawler powered by twin Ford diesel engines of 240 hp combined, delivering a cruising speed of 8 knots and maximum speed of 11 knots. Built as hull #89, she represents the final examples produced before the original mold was retired, making her one of a limited and increasingly sought-after group. The boat was kept under cover throughout her first 30 years and spent that time in fresh water, contributing to her overall condition.
The accommodations center on three staterooms: a master cabin with queen berth, a guest cabin with full bed, and a crew quarters with bunks. Additional sleeping options include a pilothouse table that converts to a full bed and a large sofa in the salon. Two heads serve the vessel—a roomy master head with granite sink and a forward head with shower accessible from the guest and crew areas. The galley features a 2024-upgraded refrigerator and freezer with icemaker, propane range, microwave, and granite countertops alongside substantial storage. The salon holds a full-size sofa, two barrel chairs, and a 32-inch television.
Climate control comes from a Cruisair dual-zone heat pump system. Power management includes a 2025 Victron 12V 3000-watt inverter paired with a 760Ah AGM battery bank, supplemented by four Full River 4D AGM house batteries and an Onan 6.0kW diesel generator. Navigation and communication equipment spans Raymarine e90W multifunction displays at both pilothouse and flybridge, a Datamarine depth finder, Furano FAP55 autopilot with flybridge remote, and dual VHF radios with AIS capability. The boat carries a 10.5-foot Avon RIB tender with 15 hp Nissan outboard, a Bruce anchor with 140 feet of chain, and includes a full canvas privacy system and motorized shades throughout.
