Description

The Ocean 53 Super Sport was built by Ocean Yachts from 1991 to 1999, with the 1996 model falling squarely into a well-regarded mid-production era known for improved manufacturing techniques, lighter and faster hulls, and strong popularity as a high-performance sportfishing convertible. 53 feet long with a 16.3 foot beam, it quickly became a staple in the offshore sportfishing class. This particular 53 Super Sport is professional maintained and ready to go on day one. Don't miss out...priced to sell quick! Insurance survey with pics from August 26, 2026 available upon request.
