Oculus, Oceanfast’s 39m motor yacht sells for nearly $4.5m

Buyers eyeing timeless luxury on the open sea just saw a rare gem change hands. The 39.02-metre Oculus motor yacht, a symbol of Oceanfast’s engineering and design prowess, has been sold for a last known asking price of $4,495,000.

This 1996-built vessel, formerly Perseverance II, offers a striking blend of elegant design and robust performance. Represented by Justin Onofrietti of Yachting Select; who handled both sides of the transaction, the sale underscores steady demand in the pre-owned superyacht market.

With naval architecture by Phil Curran and exterior styling by the renowned Bannenberg & Rowell Design, Oculus stands as a hallmark of late-90s luxury craftsmanship. Her interior, designed by Sam Sorgiovanni, blends comfort with sophistication, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for up to eight guests.

Onboard, the superyacht boasts a forward-deck Jacuzzi with a panoramic view, ideal for sun-drenched leisure. Four stylish staterooms, a spacious saloon, and refined dining areas offer privacy and luxury for owners and guests alike.

Oculus is constructed with a GRP hull and superstructure and combines lightweight strength with lasting performance. She is powered by twin MTU engines, reaching a cruising speed of 17 knots and topping out at 19 knots; perfect for swift island-hopping or coastal cruising.

While not the newest on the water, Oculus remains a sought-after name among discerning yacht buyers thanks to her heritage, build quality, and timeless appeal. The in-house deal also reflects increasing buyer confidence in experienced brokerage hands like Yachting Select.
