The Selene 78 Ocean Explorer is a 78-foot fiberglass trawler designed for extended cruising in varied climates, from northern waters to tropical destinations. Drawing on the collaborative work of Howard Chen and Guido de Groot, the yacht combines contemporary styling with the displacement hull philosophy that defines the Selene brand. Twin Cummins diesel engines rated at 850 hp deliver a cruising speed of 10 knots with a maximum speed of 12 knots.
The layout includes four cabins and five heads, providing comfortable accommodations for extended voyages. The interior design emphasizes both livability and function, while the deck plan prioritizes outdoor entertaining spaces suited to the yacht's cruising mission.
Built from fiberglass using Selene's established construction standards, the 78 Ocean Explorer measures 21 feet 9 inches across the beam and is engineered as a reliable offshore cruiser capable of handling the demands of long-range exploration.
