An elegant floating staircase to the upper deck provides one of the few fixed points in here but the rest of this step- and bulkhead-free space is almost infinitely versatile with options for seating and dining at either end, a mid or aft galley and even a main deck owners’ cabin forward. It’s a shame that the large fixed television and aft gunwale moulding block some of the view along the port side but we love the outside day heads tucked discreetly into the corner of the cockpit.
The vast open-plan main deck is configurable in multiple different ways
Below decks, that monster beam allows room for a huge midships owners’ suite, a very generous forward VIP and two good guest doubles, all with their own ensuite bathrooms. But it’s the upper deck that really blew our mind. Not only is it far bigger than expected but with its opening sunroof, two fixed skylights, drop-down side window and sliding side and rear doors that lead out to equally generous raised aft and foredeck areas, it looks and feels like a far better, brighter, more versatile space than the Ocean 182’s upper deck.
We’ll have to see how it performs at sea before giving it the final stamp of approval, but if it lives up to its early promise, we wonder whether anyone will buy an Ocean 182 now that the 156 seems to offer almost everything its big sister does for considerably less money.
