2008 Doral Alegria 45 For Sale – Freshwater One-Owner Luxury Cruiser with Volvo IPS Joystick Control

An Exceptional Freshwater Sport Yacht

The 2008 Doral Alegria 45 stands as a testament to Canadian craftsmanship and European-inspired design. As the flagship of Doral’s sport yacht line, this vessel was built on a modified deep-V hull with a generous 13-foot-10-inch beam, delivering a remarkably spacious interior and stable, confident handling in varied sea conditions. This particular example has been lovingly maintained by its original owner and operated exclusively in freshwater throughout the Great Lakes watershed – a rarity that significantly enhances the vessel’s long-term value and mechanical integrity.

Unrivaled Performance and Handling

At the heart of this Doral Alegria are twin Volvo Penta D6-435 diesel engines, each producing 435 horsepower, coupled with Volvo Penta IPS (Inboard Performance System) pod drives. This advanced propulsion system, combined with Electronic Vessel Control (EVC) and intuitive joystick maneuvering, transforms the docking experience from a challenge into a pleasure. The IPS system delivers outstanding fuel efficiency, reduced noise and vibration, and exceptional maneuverability that inspires confidence whether you are navigating tight marinas or open waters. With only 375 hours of freshwater use, these engines have been preserved in near-new condition.

Expansive Deck and Cockpit Entertainment

The thoughtfully designed cockpit is built for entertaining on a grand scale. A centerline walkthrough provides seamless access from the factory TNT hydraulic swim platform – an ideal waterside gathering space for swimming, boarding, or launching water toys. The cockpit entertainment center is fully equipped with a freshwater sink, bartop, stainless steel electric grill, refrigerator, and ice maker – everything needed for al fresco dining and social gatherings.

The helm station is a command center of modern navigation technology, featuring a Raymarine Axiom multifunction display with integrated GPS, radar, depth sounder, and comprehensive engine monitoring. A Raytheon RAY-240 VHF radio ensures reliable communication. The retractable center windshield panel provides easy foredeck access at the push of a button, a signature Doral innovation.

Luxurious Below-Deck Accommodations

Stepping below deck reveals a beautifully appointed interior with an impressive seven feet of headroom – a feature that makes the Alegria feel far more spacious than other yachts in her class. The salon features lacquered cherry cabinetry, Ultraleather seating, and premium hardware throughout.

The galley, located to port, is a chef’s delight featuring a Nova Kool RFS7501 refrigerator/freezer, stainless steel microwave, coffee maker, and a Force 10 two-burner electric cooktop with overhead vent hood. Ample cabinet storage ensures all provisions are neatly organized for extended cruising.

The forward stateroom offers comfortable overnight accommodations complete with a television, stereo system, hanging lockers, and abundant storage. A private head is located to starboard with a separate shower to port.

Full-Beam VIP Stateroom

The vessel’s crown jewel is the impressive full-beam VIP stateroom midship – a private retreat featuring a large double berth with recessed LED accent lighting, a desk with stool, and extensive storage. This stateroom boasts its own private head equipped with a vacuum-flush toilet and separate shower. An integrated LG WN3431HW washer/dryer combo, never used, adds convenience for extended liveaboard cruising.
