THE INVINCIBLE 36 OPEN FISHERMAN AND ONO ISLAND WATERFRONT LIVING
By Meredith Folger Amon
Life on the Gulf Coast is about more than just a beautiful home—it’s about how your property and your boat work together to create a lifestyle. Few boats embody that lifestyle better than the Invincible 36 Open Fisherman, and few communities showcase it more seamlessly than Ono Island in Orange Beach, Alabama.
Why the Invincible 36 is a Gulf Coast Favorite
At 36 feet 10 inches in length with a 10-foot beam, the Invincible 36 Open Fisherman is an offshore powerhouse with the versatility to handle everything from back bays to bluewater runs. Powered by twin Mercury 400 Verados (800 horsepower combined), the boat cruises comfortably above 50 mph and reaches nearly 70 mph top speed. With its 475-gallon fuel tank, it boasts more than 500 nautical miles of range, making it ideal for snapper trips, tuna runs, or just exploring Florida’s Emerald Coast by water.
Drafting just 22 inches, the Invincible is as comfortable idling along Ono Island’s canals as it is slicing through Gulf swells. That shallow draft makes beaching on Robinson Island easy, while the deep-V hull ensures a dry, smooth ride offshore.
Beyond performance, this is a true fishing machine—with multiple livewells, insulated fish boxes, rod holders, and a wide-open deck. Yet it doesn’t sacrifice comfort: a spacious helm, bolstered seating, and an enclosed head mean everyone on board can enjoy long days on the water.
A Boat That Demands the Right Dock
Of course, owning a boat like the Invincible 36 means you’ll want a home that makes it easy to enjoy. Ono Island’s deep-water canal and Bayou St. John homes are perfectly suited for this caliber of boat. With private docks, lifts, and direct Gulf access, these homes are designed for owners who want to step outside and be on the water in minutes.
As a local expert and Ono Island homeowner, I know firsthand the difference a thoughtfully placed dock makes. Homes with wide canals or open-water frontage can easily accommodate the Invincible 36’s 9’4” bridge clearance and overall size.
Current Waterfront Homes on Ono Island
Today’s Ono Island real estate market includes a variety of homes that could pair beautifully with the Invincible 36. Some highlights:
-
Bayou-front estates with expansive docks capable of handling large center consoles and even yachts.
-
Canal-front homes offering sheltered docking, easy access to Bayou St. John, and fast runs into the Gulf.
-
Big-water properties along Old River, with wide views and plenty of space for lifts, slips, and outdoor entertaining.
Each home offers the potential to create the ultimate Gulf Coast pairing: a luxury residence matched with a performance boat that can take you anywhere you want to go.
Price Perspective
A new Invincible 36 Open Fisherman typically ranges between $700,000 and $850,000, depending on options and electronics. While it’s an investment, many of my clients see boats like this not only as a source of recreation but as an extension of their real estate investment. In our market, homes with deep-water access and boat-friendly features command a premium—and pairing the right property with a boat of this caliber only enhances lifestyle and long-term value.
Comfortable Luxury Defined
For me, the Invincible 36 represents the best of what we have here on the Gulf Coast: performance, elegance, and a boat you can truly live with. Paired with a home on Ono Island, it defines the idea of comfortable luxury on the water—where entertaining, fishing, and everyday living all flow together.
If you’re considering a waterfront property on Ono Island or anywhere along the Gulf Coast, I’d love to help you find the right home to match your lifestyle—whether you’re looking for a dock that can handle an Invincible or simply a place where boating is part of your everyday routine.
