Ocean King is a family-owned Italian shipyard specializing in steel-hull explorer yachts from 24 to 42 meters in length. Inspired by commercial tugboats and workboats, these vessels are built to go the distance—designed for unmatched seaworthiness, durability, and efficiency in the most demanding marine environments.

Key highlights of Ocean King yachts include:

• Full displacement steel hulls with aluminum superstructures

• Exceptional fuel capacity for transatlantic range

• Ice-class options and rugged structural integrity

• Stabilizers, bow thrusters, and commercial-grade systems

• Timeless exterior styling and customizable luxury interiors

Ocean King yachts are built for owners who want to go further, stay longer, and explore the world in safety and style.

Each Ocean King model combines utility and luxury with Italian craftsmanship. Key models available in the market include:

• Ocean King Ducale 120 (36m): A striking tri-deck explorer yacht with bold lines, large volume, and space for up to 12 guests in five cabins.
