The 2004 Ocean Alexander 42 Altus is a fiberglass cruising yacht built around a modified-V hull design suited to Pacific Northwest waters. Twin Cummins diesel engines producing 370 horsepower each deliver efficient mid-range cruising with excellent fuel economy. The boat features Naiad stabilizers, a significant addition at this size, along with a full suite of modern systems including a watermaker, Northern Lights generator, Raymarine electronics, and an Xantrex inverter-charger. Engine hours stand at approximately 1,700.
The design prioritizes both seaworthiness and livability. Wide side decks with high bulwarks provide secure deck access, while the semi-displacement hull balances performance with range. The flybridge offers commanding sightlines and ample seating, with a covered aft deck extending weather protection. An AB Nautilus 11 hard-bottom dinghy with 2005 Tohatsu 30-horsepower outboard, hydraulic lift, and davit system complete the cruising platform.
Below, the interior showcases premium teak joinery throughout a warm, naturally lit salon with large windows. The galley-up layout integrates preparation space with living areas. Two cabins sleep guests comfortably—the master features an island berth with generous storage, and a separate guest cabin provides additional accommodation. Two heads include an enclosed shower stall. Equipment includes trim tabs, a Maxwell windlass, Bose audio, and ICOM VHF communication. The boat comes with numerous spare parts and carries dual AC-heating units for year-round comfort.
