Summary:
Even in this competitive economy, Ocean Alexander continues to do well. Why? A commitment to the product, client relations and marketing. The first two you’d expect, but the last is equally, if not more important nowadays when boat values are shifting dramatically and unexpected like teutonic plates. Those companies that work steadily at maintaining brand image will fair out better in the end. Ocean Alexander has been around over 25 years, are built at their own shipyard and appear poised to earn some market share when this storm passes.

This 78′ is a beautiful boat that’s already been broken in and is ready to do some extended cruising. She’s already in that 5 year depreciation period so she will likely hold her value relatively well over the next 3-4 years. There won’t be too many newer boats on the market over the next 36 months so this is a good investment.
