Evn'n Johnno, you know me, i would dearly love to fall in love with these boats simply because their range and redundancy are second to none but......i still cannot come to terms with their interiors. All wood with a caravan look. Trust me, if ever i see one with an alternative interior, you will be the first to know.

You need to quote the range if you claim a vessel to be a world travelling explorer yacht. The Pacific is a big ocean to cross.

I agree - whenever the data re the range is published then I always include the data. But the listing for this boat did not include it.

Before I'd even consider a Nordhavn built much past 2007 or so, I'd want a full survey done by a qualified marine surveyor. After seeing the condition that Aurora (N120) was delivered, and all the deficiencies, best practice failures, and outright safety violations that Nordhavn's own surveyor found, I am very, very skittish on the brand. Especially for a GRP hull. That said, it looks beautiful though I'm not a fan of the master stateroom being on the bridge deck, I much prefer a sky lounge. Long trips are going to have everyone rubbing shoulders, and having extra space to distance from others would be worth its weight in gold.
@SocietyMan2 жыл бұрын
the 120 was a edge case, it doesnt represent the rest of the brand at all]
@kfeltenberger2 жыл бұрын
@@SocietyMan The deficiencies shown on the videos that the surveyor created show something more than just "an edge case". A new boat had spaces and finish that looked like it was 10-15 years old and worked hard. There were serious issues and they don't just crop up in a one-off...Maybe Nordhavn has cleaned up their act and is operating in a fiscally responsible manner, but before I would spend any money, I'd want proof of what I'd be buying. Especially when a company like Bering is producing something of equal capability with the benefit of a steel hull, not GRP.
@dehaviland76452 жыл бұрын
I have to agree. Steel hull seems from my viewpoint a helluva lot better. Interior wise it's a matter of personal taste, but I prefer the Bering.

Hull is fiberglass. This means if a guest drops a cigarette she will burn down to the water line in ten minutes. No fiberglass hulled boat is a "world traveler." If you hit a semi submerged shipped container in the middle of the Atlantic, you probably wouldn't have time to get into the lifeboat before she went down.
