Alexseal has greatly enjoyed being a sponsor of the Newport Charter Yacht Show for many years. During this 4-day event, there are various contests for captains and crew including best chef, best signature cocktail, best table setting and more. However, there is always one evening during the show that sponsors get to host fun challenges for the attendees. Contests for the 2019 Newport Charter Yacht Show included large fender inflating and a drone obstacle course.

“This year, we placed our focus more on captains and crew (future captains),” Alastair Smith, Northeast US Alexseal Sales Representative explains. “I wanted to make the point that Alexseal was tough but repairable.”

A High-Tech Passenger Ferry Deserves a High-Tech Coatings System

June 6, 2019

Fast Ferry-RelianceWhen All American Marine, Inc. (AAM) set out to build the second of three low-wake, high-speed passenger vessels for Kitsap Transit, they were faced with high targets for speed, efficiency and durability. Alexseal and our West Coast Sales Manager Alex Sandas stepped up to the challenge for providing a coatings system that meets or exceeds the builder’s and operators’ requirements. With new custom colors, Tangerine Orange and Teal, we also ensured the ferry would look stunning at rest or at speed.

Ocean Alexander Introduces a New Yacht in the Mid-Size Segment

January 23, 2019

Ocean Alexander 45 Divergence

The OA Yachts 45 Divergence is Outboard Powered and Built to Fish or Dive

Known for building luxurious and beautiful motoryachts and superyachts with appointments and finishes that rival those of the custom megayacht builders, Ocean Alexander is taking a bold step into a new segment. Accustomed to building yachts ranging from 70′(21m) to 155′(47m), OA Yachts is entering the mid-size sport yacht segment with their all-new 45 Divergence. It’s difficult to classify this yacht: center console, walk-around and dayboat really can’t describe her striking lines and thoughtful features found throughout. One thing is for certain, this new yacht is distinctly an Ocean Alexander – just smaller and outboard powered!

Set to debut at the 2019 Miami Yacht Show (which is also boasting a new venue), the 45 Divergence will initially be offered in 2 variants: dive or fish. However, in true OA Yachts fashion, this stunning yacht offers over 400 variations to potential buyers in terms of finish and appearance. While it may feel overwhelming to even imagine that many variations for this yacht’s interior and exterior, customers can rest assured that only 1 coatings system will be utilized throughout this new build: Alexseal.

The Wellenreiter‘s Refit Success with Alexseal

December 3, 2018

Wellenreiter
When building or refitting a superyacht, there are an innumerable amount of decisions to be made, some exceedingly more important than others. When it comes to the coatings system, a great deal of thought and input is discussed to make an informed decision. Captain Graeme Riddle of the S/Y Wellenreiter explains, “For any paint job, the financial aspects can be daunting, the technical complexities of paint confusing and the subjective nature of the finish frustrating to settle upon an agreement. Especially under pressure from external factors.”

The S/Y Wellenreiter spent the winter season at the Monaco Marine Shipyard in La Ciotat, France for a refit. The 151’ (46m) steel and aluminum sailing yacht was originally built in 2003 by Jongert Shipyard and required some minor updates and a full repaint. The owner and Captain Riddle have collaborated with shipyards on previous superyacht refits, so this was not their “first rodeo.”

The Evan Marshall Designed 90R Revolutionizes Ocean Alexander’s Legacy

Ocean Alexander is touting their all-new 90R as a yacht unlike anything ever built. Our initial impressions of this stunning new 27-meter yacht cannot contest their claim. Her full-width main deck and 22′ (6.7m) beam provide impressive space for the salon, galley and on-deck master stateroom. Plus, an Ocean Alexander first: the beach club which provides an expansive entertaining space with a wet bar at level with the massive swim platform. The 90R boasts numerous entertaining spaces across 3 different decks, plus an open and enclosed bridge option.
