2028 Bray Yacht Design Ocean Explorer Motoryacht
About This Yacht
The Ocean Explorer is a 137-foot steel motoryacht designed by Ken Freivokh and Pat Bray, combining refined styling with efficient hull engineering. The boat features hybrid diesel-electric propulsion, allowing up to five hours of silent operation at six knots on battery alone. With twin CAT C18 diesel engines, it achieves a 4,000-nautical-mile range at 14 knots, reaches a top speed of 16 knots, and demonstrates superior seakeeping characteristics with enhanced stability for offshore conditions.
The interior incorporates eco-friendly materials from sustainable sources throughout. Layout options remain flexible and can be tailored to individual preferences, with the design process accommodating customization choices. The yacht's beam of 28 feet provides substantial interior volume and stability on passage.
A defining feature is the expansive aft adventure deck, engineered to support deployment of a mini-submarine, seaplane, helicopter, or larger sportfish tender. The low-wake hull form and reduced fuel consumption reflect the design's environmental considerations, delivering extended range and economy without compromising performance or comfort.
