Our Take

The 2021 Marlow Explorer 58E "Lady Lee" represents a sophisticated approach to long-range cruising, combining the efficiency and seaworthiness of a semi-enclosed trawler-style explorer with the comfort and appointment standards of a premium motor yacht. At 70.5 feet in length with an 18.5-foot beam and 4.83-foot draft, this vessel offers the volume and stability serious cruising demands while maintaining the shallow-draft capability that opens protected waters and anchorages to the experienced navigator.

Propulsion comes from twin Caterpillar ACERT C18 engines rated at 1150 horsepower each, completed with 1000-hour service in 2023 and backed by Caterpillar Platinum Warranty coverage through February 2027. The engines demonstrate the engineering philosophy behind this platform: capable of efficient cruising at 8–10 knots with trawler-like fuel economy, yet equally at home running 21–22 knots when conditions and schedule demand. The 1500-gallon fuel capacity and single forward fuel tank with glass sight tube support extended offshore passages, while the twin 17.0-kilowatt Onan generators (1080 hours starboard, 1098 hours port) provide reliable electrical independence. Recent service history includes aftercooler core replacement and full fluid and filter changes in June 2025, along with new Freedom Lift actuators and hydraulic lines, demonstrating consistent professional maintenance.

The semi-enclosed flybridge design creates a signature feature of this model—79 inches of headroom in the main salon and lower accommodations, 74 inches in the engine room, and a total height to the hardtop of just 18 feet 6 inches. This geometry delivers exceptional volume without compromising stability or bridge clearance concerns. The flybridge itself remains semi-enclosed, integrating the windshield framing into a hardtop structure with fixed protective windscreen, wipers, and defrost, while open sides and rear provide natural ventilation. An extended aft deck beyond the flybridge adds lounging and dining space, equipped with nonskid decking, electric SureShade sunshade, Fire Magic gas grill, and sink.

Below, the layout distributes three spacious staterooms plus dedicated crew quarters across a thoughtfully arranged interior. The full-beam master stateroom features a centerline king-sized bed with large drawer storage below, mirrored cabinetry with cedar-lined hanging lockers on port and starboard, and an aft ensuite with his-and-hers heads, each with port lights and a large shower fitted with Grohe rain shower head and frosted glass. The VIP cabin provides an elevated centerline bed with drawer storage, cedar-lined hanging lockers, direct access to its own head, and ample guest accommodations. A third guest stateroom offers side-by-side berths, cedar-lined locker, wash sink with teak counters, and generous portholes for natural light. The beach club—accessed via an extra-large hydraulic transom door and cockpit hatch—functions as extended crew quarters with two comfortable lounging berths, a wet head with shower, refrigerator, microwave, and ample storage.

The galley and wheelhouse occupy the forward upper level, with the galley featuring a Subzero refrigerator/freezer drawer unit, Dacor induction cooktop and oven, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, and Franke sink set into a striking Caesarstone Statuario Nuvo quartz countertop laid

Overview
The 2021 Marlow Explorer 58E, known as "Lady Lee," represents a refined approach to long-range cruising and coastal exploration. At 70.5 feet in length with an 18.5-foot beam, this semi-enclosed trawler -style motor yacht combines traditional craftsmanship with modern marine technology. Professionally maintained under experienced captain oversight, this Explorer 58E delivers the volume, comfort, and capable performance expected of a vessel designed for extended time away from the dock. The semi-enclosed hardtop design provides weather protection while maintaining the open-air experience, and the accommodation plan supports a full family or charter operation with three spacious staterooms, crew quarters, and extensive common areas throughout the vessel.
Hull Design and Exterior
The Explorer 58E hull is finished in Flag Blue AwlGrip, a two-part polyurethane system that provides durability and aesthetic appeal. The natural teak deck throughout the aft cockpit and foredeck establishes the traditional character that defines the Marlow Explorer line, while polished stainless-steel handrails and a high-gloss teak cap rail reinforce the vessel's attention to detail. Upgraded oval exterior stainless hardware replaces standard fittings, and the extended upper aft deck adds functional lounging and entertaining space beyond the standard configuration. Boarding is accommodated via a large swim platform or two side-mounted gates positioned along the cockpit, both finished in teak. The foredeck features a built-in bench settee with integrated storage, ideal for anchor watch or forward observation. A Raymarine aft-facing security camera provides monitoring of the transom and swim platform area. The high gloss teak table and built-in aft cockpit settee create a natural gathering space, while a third docking station with sink and storage cabinet in the starboard side cabinet supports day-use convenience.
Deck Layout and Tender Integration
A Freedom Lift system with new actuators and hydraulic lines installed in 2025 enables launching and recovery of the included 12-foot ZAR tender with 60 HP Suzuki outboard. The tender includes a Sunbrella cover and is stored on the stern davit system. The extended aft deck features nonskid decking, a Fire Magic gas grill, a large storage compartment, and a SureShade electric sunshade system for weather protection during extended anchorages. Wing doors on port and starboard sides provide easy access to the side decks and forward boarding areas.

The wheelhouse sits elevated three steps forward of the main salon, offering full-weather protection and commanding sightlines. The helm provides comprehensive functionality with a Yacht Controller integrated system that centralizes control of thrusters, stabilizers, and other mechanical systems. Two Raymarine Axiom XL 22-inch multifunction displays (21.5" screens) flank the helm, with a third display positioned on the flybridge . The helm features STIDD ergonomic chairs and overhead screens with manual shade controls for glare reduction. A Raymarine 12KW Magnum 6-foot open radar, EV-400 autopilot with p70R control head, ClearPulse sonar module, HS5 transducer, Ray90 VHF with AIS700, and satellite weather receiver via SiriusXM and InfoLINK provide comprehensive navigation and communication capability. A Fusion stereo system with integrated control completes the wheelhouse environment.

A Subzero refrigerator/freezer drawer combination maintains temperature stability, while a Dacor induction cooktop with integrated oven provides precise cooking control. A Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, Insignia microwave, and GE InSinkErator disposal support meal preparation efficiency. Countertops are finished in Caesarstone Statuario Nuvo quartz laid in a diamond pattern with teak border and stainless trim, creating a durable and visually cohesive workspace. A Franke sink with Grohe chrome faucet, teak blinds, and overhead screens on the wheelhouse doors complete the galley environment. To port, an L-shaped dining area with Ultraleather seating and a satin teak table accommodates eight to ten guests comfortably. A large wine cooler positioned beneath the port aft salon countertop and additional glassware storage on the starboard side support entertaining. OceanAir FlyRoller screens on the wheelhouse doors provide insect protection while maintaining ventilation.
Main Salon and Interior Design
The main salon exemplifies the integration of traditional and contemporary design principles.

A 50-inch Samsung smart television mounted forward in the salon connects to a Bose Home Theater sound system, while a Fusion stereo provides additional audio capability. Teak blinds, a teak coffee table with integrated storage and magazine racks, a teak overhead grab rail, and a teak desk create a cohesive interior environment. Caesarstone 'Dreamy Marfil' quartz countertops aft on the starboard side, wine cooler and large storage cabinet below, and bookshelves forming a mini library contribute to the salon's functionality and aesthetic appeal. FlyRoller bug screens on the salon door enable fresh-air circulation without insect intrusion. Underwater light switch controls allow manipulation of exterior lighting from the interior. The salon provides 79 inches of headroom, a significant dimension that creates an open, airy atmosphere throughout the lower accommodations.

Large opening port lights flank the cabin, while a king-sized centerline bed includes extensive drawer storage below.
