Ocean Alexander 35R Named Best of Show at FLIBS
Ocean Alexander’s 35R took the NBC Sports Best of Show award at the 62nd Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show held the last week of October. The motoryacht was featured during an hour-long broadcast on the NBC Sports network along with other highlights from the show.
Designed by Evan K. Marshall, the 35R is 116’9” (35.6 m) long with a 25’1” (7.64 m) beam. She draws 6’11” (2.11 m), displaces 365,086 lbs. (165,600 kg) and is powered by twin 1,900-hp MAN V12 inboards.
Worthy Candidate
The Best of Show award is given to a yacht that makes its debut at the event. This year saw guests returning to the show in large numbers. The 35R is the flagship of the three-boat Revolution series and features a quad-deck design with a flying bridge, an extensive beach-club aft and a lounge and sundeck on the bow.
She expands on the functionality of her smaller sisters showcasing a modern, sleek exterior design combined with a spacious interior layout and detailing. The 35R’s interior volume is noteworthy and features a layout that one would expect to find in larger yachts. It also has expansive outdoor spaces.
At the beach club in the stern, the sea-level entertaining space has a television and bar and is fitted with a sauna and gym. It’s accessed directly from the beach club with its fold-down swim platform or from the interior via side deck stairs on the port side.
The space is also equipped with a day head and stall shower that connects directly to this highly active area.
Ocean Alexander also displayed the 30R and the 37L that is the new flagship of the Legend series.
