Oceanic 143 Yacht a motore

An entire deck reserved for the owner is the detail that defines Oceanic 143's layout. Canados built her in 2023 to the Oceanic 143 Expedition design, and the private upper deck, five staterooms and space for ten guests all follow from that one decision about how she divides her volume.

Build and provenance

Canados built her in 2023 to the Oceanic 143 Expedition design, a monohull finished in an explorer style, with a hull in E-Glass Vinylester and a superstructure in Kevlar and Aramat composite. Her design team worked to a brief that weighed speed, comfort at sea, exterior space and a shallow draught equally, and at 44 metres, 143 feet, with a beam of 8.2 metres and a draught of 2.1 metres, that brief is visible in her proportions.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests are accommodated across five staterooms. The owner's cabin occupies the private upper deck on its own, with a king-size bed, a walk-through wardrobe and an ensuite fitted with twin marble basins. Two VIP suites sit on the lower deck with king beds and marble ensuites of their own, and two further twin cabins convert to queen-size berths, giving the layout flexibility for a mixed group of guests. The main saloon is built for entertaining, with a dining table that seats ten and windows that run floor to ceiling, and the aft deck carries that space outdoors with room for lounging and dining. Below, a beach club doubles as a gym, reached from the transom, and a tender bay amidships holds a 20-foot tender.

Performance and engineering

Three Caterpillar C32 B Series engines, each rated at 2,400 hp, drive Oceanic 143 to a cruising speed of 19 knots and a top speed of 26 knots on a fast displacement hull, a configuration built for pace rather than the slow, steady cruise of a pure displacement yacht. Her 2.1-metre draught keeps shallow anchorages and skinny channels within reach, extending where she can cruise.

Where she lies and how to see her

Oceanic 143 lies in Cannes, France. Boatcrowd arranges viewings there and attends them with you, and once an offer is accepted, survey and sea trial follow before handover.
