Overview GOOD VIBRATIONS is a 1997 Ocean Alexander 440 Sundeck and one of the most popular and enduring models in the Ocean Alexander lineup. Produced from 1987 to 1999 and designed by renowned naval architect Ed Monk Jr., the 440 Sundeck combines sleek European styling with serious offshore capability and a practical, well-appointed interior; qualities that continue to make Ocean Alexander yachts highly sought after.Built on a modified-V hull with a shallow keel and moderate transom deadrise, GOOD VIBRATIONS delivers a comfortable, confident ride. Her two-stateroom, two-head layout, galley-down configuration, and full-beam aft sundeck make her equally well suited to weekend cruising and extended passages, while twin steering stations offer all-season comfort while helming. Both the flybridge and aft deck are fully enclosed with removable canvas covers.For her current owners, GOOD VIBRATIONS has served as a luxury floating downtown condo; a comfortable home on the water in the heart of the city, ideal for escaping inland summer heat while also delivering on her passage making pedigree.Each summer brought two-week cruises to the San Juans and Canada, along with countless day trips touring the waterfront homes of Lake Washington and regular appearances in the Lake Union holiday boat parade and fourth of July festivities. When met with challenging weather, GOOD VIBRATIONS handles with the steadiness and confidence as her design and build quality promises. Good Vibrations is reliable and reassuring underway, at anchor, and moored, and will continue to be an excellent platform for adventure in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. She's been meticulously maintained throughout this ownership, with a complete annual service performed by the same trusted mechanic every year in her current ownership. Full-service receipts and mechanic contact information are available to serious buyers upon request. Upgrades & Highlights  New Start and House batteries (2025)2stateroom,2head layoutTwin helm stations(2) Cummins6BTA5.9-Mdiesel engines — 370 hp (annual professional service)Teak interior joinery and brightworkMoored exclusively in fresh water since2012Webasto heaters, interior and exteriorFishing ready - Down throttle for trolling, down rigger mounts, cleaning table with fish hold boxUpgraded head systemNew canvas New Novo Cool AC and DC refrigerator/freezerBottom paint (2025)New speed/depth transducer (2026)New windlass motor (2025)New captain's chairs and newly recovered flybridge seats (2025)Phone intercom systemNew flybridge eisen glassGarmin electronics 15” MFD and xHD radar (2019)New galley and shower faucets (2025)   Interior Accommodations GOOD VIBRATIONS's two-stateroom, two-head interior is finished throughout with warm teak brightwork and joinery, complemented by teak-and-holly parquet cabin soles; features that Ocean Alexander is renowned for.The forward guest stateroom offers a comfortable V-berth retreat with generous storage and private ensuite head. Aft, the full-beam master stateroom is a genuine sanctuary; a centerline island queen berth anchors the space, flanked by well-executed cabinetry, hanging lockers, and a dedicated vanity, all served by an ensuite head with a separate shower stall.The main salon is a bright, comfortable space, featuring a large L-shaped settee to port for entertaining and socializing, and a starboard helm station that allows for protected, four-season piloting and navigation. Main salon floor panels open to provide outstanding access to the mechanical plant and engine room.Stepping down and forward to port, a large U-shaped galley is outfitted with an upright refrigerator/freezer, top-loading counter storage, and generous teak-veneered cabinetry. A large double sink and adjacent counter make food prep a joy, while a 3-burner electric range and dual convection/microwave oven round out all the amenities and storage needed for a well-fed adventure or day trip. Opposite the galley to starboard, a dining table with comfortable seating for four converts easily to an additional berth.This is the comfortable, well-thought-out interior expected of an Ocean Alexander yacht. Interior Highlights Galley and Heads Kenyon Euro Kera electric3burner stoveNovo Cool AC/DC refrigerator/freezer (2026)Large double sink with hot and cold pressure water and faucet with extensionGE Profile dual convection/ microwave ovenSplendideWD802 Washer/Dryer(2) Sealand model 548 electric headsJabsco Macerator   Electronics & Navigation Flybridge Helm 30” stainless steel wheelGarmin GPS map XSV 7616GarminxHDradarIcom IC-M127 VHFWestmar bow thruster controls5” Ritchey compassMorse engine controls Lower Helm / Navigation Station Teak laminated six spoke wheeliComIC-M127 VHFMorse engine controlsComnav Marine 1001 Autopilot controlMagnum energy battery charge monitor/controllerMaxwell Davit control breaker switchWest Marine weather base20weather stationTank Tender tank capacity monitorIntercom phone station EntertainmentWired for satellite (KVH Trac Vision)Stereo speakers: (2) flybridge stereo speakers and (2) aft stateroom Alpine stereo speakers Mechanical Systems PropulsionTwinCummins6BTA5.9-Mdiesel engines —370hp each3471 hours port engine | 3648 hours starboard engine(2) Hurth TRM 220A-1 direct drive transmission2.04:1 ratioDripless shaft sealsWestmar bow thruster(2) Bennett V351 trim tabs (48” x 12”) Generator & Electrical 12v DC110v ACAC/DC electrical service panelOnan 8kw 8MDKDB Generator(2304hrs)12V DC and 120V AC electrical systems(8) Dyno GC2B 6v 235ah deep cycle batteries (940Ah/12V)- House bank (2025)(2) Dyno 8Ddeep cycle batteries (240Ah/12V each)- port and starboard engine start batteries.
