Ocean Thunder Yacht | 100' Gulf Craft 1986

Ocean Thunder — 150-Passenger Aluminum Excursion Vessel (Fully Refitted)

Ocean Thunder is a proven, U.S.-built passenger vessel that just completed a comprehensive transformation from stem to stern—ready to go back to work on Day One. Launched in 1986 and operated on the East Coast before heading to Panama, she was shipped to Ensenada and sailed to Ventura for a new hydraulic bow thruster installation, then on to Monterey Bay where she underwent a full rebuild and modernization with oversight by a seasoned captain tending to every detail. The result is a robust, economical platform ideal for whale watching, coastal sightseeing, ferry service, private charters, and special-event cruises in a busy waterfront market.

Why She Stands Out

COI for 150 passengers – proven commercial capacity and revenue potential
Triple Tier 3 main engines – efficient, compliant power with excellent maneuverability
Two new generators – reliable hotel loads for full-day operations
Complete rewire – clean, modern electrical from bridge to keel
Fresh paint – topsides, deck, and hull present beautifully to guests
Hydraulic bow thruster – confident close-quarters handling
Custom stainless railings – safe guest flow and polished, professional look
Current surveys in hand – Out of Water, Detailed Engineer Hull Sounding, and In-Water including sea trials
Stability Analysis - performed by the best in the business, with Best in Class results

The Opportunity

With capacity for 150 guests and a fresh mechanical/electrical slate, Ocean Thunder is a turnkey moneymaker poised for immediate service in a high-demand marine tourism market. The heavy lifting—engines, gensets, wiring, paint, rails, and maneuvering systems—has already been done. Put your brand on the hull, set your routes and pricing, and start running profitable trips this season.
