Ocean Alexander 28R Open (2020 - 2021) 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 28R Open delivers speeds of up to 22 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Ocean Alexander 28R Open offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Horizon FD87 and Ocean Alexander 90R Open, share the same 10 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 28R Open benefits from a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a skylight 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 28R Open has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 16 knots and a top speed of 22 knots. The Ocean Alexander 28R Open emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Sanlorenzo SL86 which has an impressive cruising speed of 27 knots powered by its twin 1,800hp MTU 12V 2000 M96 engines and can reach a top speed of 32 knots. This is closely followed by the Ocean Alexander 90R Open with a notable cruising speed of 18 knots and top speed of 27 knots.

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 Horizon FD87, Ocean Alexander 90R Open, Sirena Yachts 88 and Horizon FD92 Tri Deck 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 Numarine 26 XP has an impressive gross tonnage of 149GT, the largest of the competitors here.
