The 1996 ABD 90 Explorer is an aluminum-hulled motor yacht purpose-built for long-range cruising. Twin Caterpillar diesel engines deliver 620 horsepower and support a cruising speed of 9 knots. The yacht's deep-sea capability is enhanced by hull upgrades including zero-speed stabilizers, lead-ballasted beavertails, and a custom extended bulbous bow, all designed to maintain stability and comfort in heavy conditions.
The accommodations include five cabins and five heads. The upper deck features an owner's suite with private covered deck, dedicated office, and separate bathrooms. Guest cabins are positioned on the main deck, each with en-suite facilities. Additional living spaces span multiple decks: a covered top deck, bow deck, and aft deck provide ample room for relaxation and entertaining.
Interior finishes include mahogany-raised-panel wainscoting, Brazilian Cherry floors, and teak outdoor decking. The layout incorporates a dedicated lower machinery deck for engine access and maintenance. At 90 feet with a beam of 23.5 feet, the yacht offers substantial interior volume.
The boat is equipped for expedition use and water sports: a heavy-duty crane handles a 30-foot dive boat and additional tenders, a dive compressor with tank racks, multiple kayaks, and fishing gear are onboard. The yacht has logged over 50,000 nautical miles across multiple oceans and transits.
