$3.5M Price Drop on 41m Newcastle Marine Explorer Yacht Zexplorer

The 41m explorer yacht Zexplorer has recently seen a major price reduction of $3,500,000 and, according to YachtBuyer Market Watch, is currently asking $10,000,000.

Delivered in 2013 by Newcastle Marine, Zexplorer's naval architecture and exterior design come from Sparkman & Stephens, while Christina Norris handled the interior styling, creating a space that’s as inviting as it is practical.

The main saloon onboard the yacht for sale features twin L-shaped sofas in crisp white, maple and oak coffee tables, and panoramic windows that flood the space with natural light. Forward, the dining area centers around a square marble table for 12, framed by mahogany cabinetry that offers plenty of storage for glassware and service items.

Upstairs in the sky lounge, a bright and casual space features an L-shaped sofa, a card table, and a flat-screen TV, while large windows and grey curtains add a relaxed touch. A day head and shared bathroom on this deck add convenience.

A gym area, relocated during a 2022 refit, is located forward on the bridge deck, offering workout space with a view. Down aft, the cockpit has been reworked for alfresco dining, complete with a large teak table and seating for 12, while the fixed bathing platform serves as a practical water access point, featuring a deployable swim step and rod holders for fishing. A central transom door opens into a spacious lazarette, ideal for stowing Seabobs, diving gear, and bikes.
