HARDTOP HIGHLIGHTS

-

Ocean Alexander packs a lot into the 45’s hardtop, including four Fusion speakers, recessed lighting, and forward and aft spreader lights. One nicety is the retractabl­e, motorized SureShade cockpit awning that extends almost all the way aft. It’s a great option to keep the sun off at high noon.

all four outboards can move in unison, or the portside two can move separately from the starboard-side two. ¶ At the helm, the vessel’s triple Llebroc crossstitc­hed helm seats are abaft a Garmin electronic­s suite with three 17-inch multifunct­ion displays for charts, radar, SiriusXM and sonar. ¶ Abaft the helm seats is a cabinet that houses a retractabl­e flat-screen

TV, a Scandvik stainless-steel sink and faucet, a two-burner Kenyon cooktop, a Kenyon grill, and a U-Line refrigerat­or. ¶ Marshall’s interior focus was to enhance the owner’s experience. To that end, the belowdecks layout is pleasantly sized with 6-foot-6inch headroom. Solid-wood cabinetry, side and forward windows, and a skylight enhance the open feeling here. A console and wet bar to port have a GE microwave, Isotherm fridge drawer and Scandvik sink. ¶ Forward is a U-shape settee with a high-low dining table that converts to a queen berth. To starboard is a head that has a clear Ambassador Marine basin sink, a Tecma toilet and a window. There’s a separate shower stall. ¶ Options include wood choices, paint schemes and matching engine colors. A Seakeeper 6 gyrostabil­izer is available, as are an 11-kW Kohler diesel generator and a KVH satellite-TV system. ¶ With big-boat features and sporty performanc­e, Ocean Alexander’s 45 Divergence has a good shot at attracting dayboat enthusiast­s and yacht owners who want a stylish tender. She’s definitely a break from the norm.
