Aboard the OceanExplorer catamarans, you can traverse the world in unmatched luxury and style. The custom-made catamarans are made to order by Ocean Quality Systems, for explorers who seek real performance as well as exceptional comfort and safety onboard.
Ocean Quality Systems was founded in 2010, by a few similar-minded companies with extensive experience in luxury boatbuilding. The boatyard is located in Jakobstad in Finland, a region with a 400-year tradition in shipbuilding and seafaring.
“Jakobstad has a fantastic heritage in crafting sailboats and motorboats, with some of the leading boatyards in the world,” says Tomas Halmesmäki, CEO of OQS. “With our line of luxury performance catamarans, we honour that knowledge and quality of craftsmanship, whilst also introducing innovative design and functionality.”
Design by Germán Frers
The OceanExplorer catamarans are designed by Germán Frers, an Argentine naval architect who is internationally renowned for his efficient and beautiful designs of sailing yachts. “The combination of the superior design by Frers and the knowledge of the OQS team ensures premium experiences onboard,” says Halmesmäki. “Our clients’ wishes are at the heart of everything we do at OQS.”
The high-performance luxury offshore cruising catamarans are made to order, handcrafted by an expert team, and take a minimum of 16 months to complete. They are currently available to order in three sizes; OE62, OE72, and the maxi catamaran OE78. Regardless of size, each OceanExplorer catamaran is built from the finest composite materials, critical for optimum strength-to-weight ratio. The interior can be customised to each owner’s preference, for a comfortable and relaxing space to enjoy with family and friends.
“An OceanExplorer catamaran is like a Bentley,” smiles Halmesmäki. “Some people pretty much live on the boat and sail around the world, whilst others use them more for vacations, shorter distances and races. Our catamarans offer a balance between comfort and performance – ultimately, they are built to be used and are sure to bring unforgettable memories.”
