The Ocean Alexander 78 is a large volume vessel giving you the feel of a spacious larger yacht. JANE E is a late model enclosed pilothouse motor yacht that has had nothing but the best care since new and is kept in Bristol condition.

The aft deck accommodates six guests for dining and entertaining. Included is a service bar with refrigerator drawers and separate access to crew quarters and a staircase up to the boat deck. Walking inside, the salon has ample seating and large windows enhancing the views while underway. There is a day head to port between the salon and galley. Moving forward is a country kitchen perfect for both owner and chef. Just forward is the interior dining room with seating for six. To port is an interior staircase that leads to the rare upgraded enclosed pilothouse/skylounge, allowing for additional living,
dining, and entertaining space. There is a full skylounge/sundeck day head conveniently accessible from both interior and exterior areas.

On the starboard side of the pilothouse is the Sky Deck door with a Phantom screen that leads out to the spacious sky deck which features the Ocean Alexander sail shade system with removable stainless-steel stanchions, complete with a barbecue grill and wet bar. This space becomes the perfect area for relaxing, entertaining, and sunbathing, with teak steamer chairs when the tender is off-board. 

Below in the country kitchen is another wonderful dining, relaxing, and socializing area, the product of eliminating the lower helm and controls. To starboard of the country kitchen is the staircase to the owner and guest staterooms. The full-beam master is aft, with six large designer windows, three large cedar-lined closets, one being a walk-in. A fully lighted vanity with seating is to starboard. The master head is large with heated floors, double sinks, and a spacious shower. Moving forward from the inlaid granite landing to port is the twin stateroom with ensuite head and continuing forward is the beautifully appointed queen VIP stateroom with two wardrobes and an ensuite head.

The salon area is very comfortable with an L-shaped sofa with new style large windows and shades and (2) barrel chairs. The large windows bring the outside in and make it a warm and inviting area.

The pilothouse/skylounge adds incredible function and livability to the yacht. The helm has the Evan Marshall designed elevated pods with five flat screens on center and a pop-up TV and refrigerator with icemaker to starboard. The helm accommodates three low-profile Stidd chairs. Directly aft of the helm to starboard is a U-shaped settee with a high gloss folding table on a stainless pedestal.
There is a head to port that also accesses the boat deck. The rear windows open outward, and the starboard door has the Phantom screen. All forward windows are protected by a removable canvas sunscreen.

The Navigation System on JAN E is based on the new TimeZero Professional V4.1 advanced navigation software and includes a chart subscription for the US East Coast and Bahamas and licenses for three computer systems and up to nine monitors, and currently is interfaced to five monitors.

This navigation system runs on three new high-end Intel Next Unit Computing (NUC) PCs with SSD drives and independent 24V power supplies. This entire system is mounted in a standard 19” computer rack under the helm for easy servicing and component replacement.

The navigation system interfaces to the yachts CAN-BUS with two Actisense NGT-1s for redundancy - complete and up-to-date documentation for the CAN bus is provided. The navigation system interfaces to the yachts Ethernet, WiFI, and USB bus with a Maretron IPG100 and a Maretron USB100 for redundancy.

The system includes a complete remote monitoring capability using TeamViewer allowing the owner or crew to check on and even control most systems on the yacht. There is a backup Maretron IPG100 and an Intel NUC power supply included for redundancy If a navigational PC fails or needs to be upgraded to a faster system, complete system images are provided for each of the three Intel NUC PCs. This
allows an extremely easy upgrade or replacement as the system image contains all settings, software, and charts, therefore eliminating any expensive or time-consuming reinstallation process. The navigation system is interfaced to the Octoplex Power Control system through two Maretron NBE100 filters.
