Ocean Alexander 90R Open (2018 - 2020) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the semi-displacement hull of the 90R Open delivers speeds of up to 27 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Ocean Alexander 90R Open offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Sirena Yachts 88 and Horizon FD92 Tri Deck, share the same 10 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 90R Open benefits from a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a walk-in wardrobe and a dressing table is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Sanlorenzo SL86 and Numarine 26 XP, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Ocean Alexander 90R Open delivers a steady 18 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Sanlorenzo SL86 with an impressive cruising speed of 27 knots. The Ocean Alexander 90R Open emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed, catering to a different set of priorities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Horizon FD92 Tri Deck, with the slowest cruising speed of 16 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Numarine 26 XP impresses with its extensive range of 3,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Ocean Alexander 28 Explorer and Ocean Alexander 27E all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sanlorenzo SL86 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 32 knots and cruising speed of 27 knots. The Ocean Alexander 28 Explorer has an impressive gross tonnage of 163GT, the largest of the competitors here.
