“Middle of the Atlantic”, “worst case scenario”, “do this and keep going” can’t say that about many boats. Great tour as always. Well structured.

[@Berrus81]

Wow! Two Nordhavns in a month! You spoil us Nick 👍👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

More to come!

[@georgedoolittle7574]

@@AQUAHOLIC some great KZbin channel references on "how to handle your Nordhaven" as well ("sailing MV Freedom) as these are capital intensive but true blue water motor and motorsailer vessels. By way of example the wing engine does not run on interior cooling and has a major design flaw in the cooling system that can all too easily and if not recognized/rectified flood your engine compartment "just for that time when you do in fact have that emergency" so not a small matter. This is quite the reasonable price for such a brand and excellent job pointing out how the idea of needing to change out the stuffing box was thought through in the design process/review/prior to the building process.

I feel he did when he opened a cabinet on an 80s Princess and found a cathode ray TV and VHS player. This thing had the old school landline handset style VHF etc. The sort of stuff that often sadly gets ripped out

[@SteveMastroyin]

What a beautifully maintained little ship. You'd think it's a 2021 from how clean it is. This is the dream though, right size for a couple or family and to have friends come and go, decent price, go anywhere. We love Nordhavn!

[@DrClumber]

Of all the types of ship you show on your channel, the Nordhavn's are the most desirable in my opinion. The idea of just going from anchorage to anchorage all along the Atlantic/Med is so enticing.

[@davecourage4986]

I couldn’t agree more. My dream is the new 41. Retire early and just get lost somewhere wonderful.

[@ronsamborski6230]

My “lottery fantasy” would be to have a vessel such as this and travel the Great Lakes in warmer weather, then transit south along the Atlantic coast for warmer climes when cold weather arrives on our “inland oceans”.

[@ryanforrest168]

My “classic nordhavn” senses were tingling

[@jameshooper5671]

Your recent Nordhavn game is in top form!

[@davidfmelbourne3473]

That is one of the most impressive boats you've reviewed. Not about size, not about luxury, just about a boat that is truly built and set up for every eventuality. Cross the Atlantic? Let's leave tomorrow. Comfortable cabins, enough lounge/dining space for all. An excellent galley, a beautifully equipped wheelhouse and an engine room to die for on a boat this size (and puts to shame a lot larger boats). Value for money is astonishing. All I need is a couple of rugs for the floors and I'd be totally happy.

I can't believe that all of that boat is worth less than a million dollars US. Worth every penny if you ask me. excellent tour.

Another lovely “little” boat, this looks like it could shrug off an Atlantic storm without breaking into a sweat.

[@philjohnwilliams]

Morning coffee and a Nordhavn tour, great way to start my day.

[@strider6920]

What a great mini ship ! Long distance boating with reliability and plenty of redundancy. Nordhavn are truly practical boats. Brilliant tour Nick !

[@Powerfaust]

I could never afford most of the boats you show off, but used to sail as a kid with my grandpa, and so when I randomly stumbled on your channel its just become my new favorite.

[@SuperStormgames]

Proper ship feel on these. Really like them.

[@derfels9291]

Really love the fact the you go across board to show the 'smallest' (cheapest) to the 'largest' (most expensive) boats/yachts. It will increase you audience for sure

[@UraFlight]

I even touched this boat last week ! Me and my mate were looking for fishing spots in Southampton and ended up in this marina. I said to my mate that I watched Aquaholic videos and saw similar boat on his channel. We came out from the car and walked around this boat. Very impressive bulbous bow this boat has. Then we spotted another Nordhaven with a blue bottom which is stays not far from this boat I was wondering how this boat is inside and now you’ve posted this video. It’s like my small wish has been granted. Thank you for the video !

[@abouttime5000]

The engineering is the one thing that spooks the hell out of me. On all vessels that is. When something breaks down and repairing it is your only hope I would be afraid Davie Jones locker would be waiting. In the middle of an ocean with no highway to wave help down.

[@TaxTheMonkey]

Fantastic little ship. For a 2004 boat that engine room is spotless, I could spend many happy hours in there tinkering away at my workbench while a raging storm blows itself out unnoticed outside. Edit - Typo

Truly timeless design. While having logged nearly 17 years and a crossing or two, this boat looks more than new, it looks as though it is right for today. And, I imagine, that will be the same sentiment heard decades from now. Thanks for sharing the tour, Nick.

[@loading2112]

Nick, when you reviewed Nordhavn 140 is gonna be one of the best day in my life.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I hope one day!

[@stevehill6062]

Love watching all of your tours of the multimillion dollar yachts, but really learning that if you want an, as you say, little ship for true sea journeys, you can get a lot more GO, and somewhat less SHOW for a lot less money. This is a factor that had never been a part of my limited, but thanks to you, growing knowledge of yachtdom. Thanks!

[@kimitalvitie]

This is.. dare I say it.. Classic Nordhavn! Absolutely brilliant haha

[@easybigun7825]

I do love a Nordhavn, it inspires the dream of setting off with some friends and not coming back until you're good and ready. Thank you for the tour.

[@roberthennel]

Nordhavns and Flemings are just wonderful expeditions ships, particularly the smaller ones, for a well-off adventurous boating family.

[@chrisryan3770]

The “Shutters,” on the port holes are called Deadlights. I do like a Nordhaven. Proper boats. 👍

[@wernerdanler2742]

That's what they were originally designed for. We used them to go dark at sea in a war zone aboard a naval vessel. Turn off your nav lights and you're virtually invisible at night.

[@johningham4942]

I've got to say nick that this nordhavn 57 has surprised me, 3 cabins on a pre 60ft boat is amazing! The whole living space doesn't feel at all cramped, in fact it seems like it's a bigger boat. I didn't notice any entertainment pieces on this one but I'm sure there was something hidden away. A great tour of a "classic nordhavn!"

[@genericusername2177]

These are always so ship-o-chique. Love how you always ooze enthusiasm when you do a Nordhavn👌. You are all the promotional material this brand will ever need. Great stuff @Nick, thanks so much.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you like them!

[@johndo3930]

What an nice boat ...I was stunned with the amount of space in the engine room with such a relitative small boat

[@steve-marsh]

Before even watching, I'm predicting the best value boat ever seen on Aquaholic...

If i ever thought of buying a boat it would be a Nordhavn, You detail these boats very well Nick. Thank you.

[@johnisaacbermejo436]

If my memory served me correctly, this 2004 Nordhavn 57 Hull #29 "Goleen" was part of the 2004 Nordhavn Atlantic Rally (NAR) where 18 Nordhavns have to sail/motor their way across the Atlantic, and this proves that Nordhavns do have transatlantic range. Anyways, thanks for the tour, Mr. Nick. A lovely classic Nordhavn indeed.

[@nicbennett6554]

Brilliant! I do like a classic Nordhaven 😁 I think early retirement, purchase one of these and cruise the world sounds like a great dream.

Totally agree!

Nordhavn needs to hire you as their videographer for sales. You would do them well.

[@goodguy5828]

i love those Nordhavn ships. So much class in one boat. Dreaming of living on one and exploring the world later.

[@marijns]

What a great ship! Might not have the luxury of many of the other boats you feature, but it is amazing and feels so much more like a machine that can win a fight at sea.

[@Gamrman]

I always love to see a good Nordhavn! Such absolutely beautiful boats!

[@battlehymn6389]

If I am not mistaken that is Hull#29 "Goleen". Be careful with classifying wing engines simply as "get home" drives. Many of them run the hydraulics for the the thrusters, and/or, provide auxiliary power via an attached alternator.

[@trulsvelgaard5153]

Yes, as the owner I can confirm that this is N57-29 Goleen.

[@mrdiavel4807]

Ever tried on of those get you home engines ? Woefully slow , on a good day with the wind behind and no tide maybe 4.5 knots if you wring it’s neck , bad day and pushing tide barely making any progress if at all , it’s why I think nordhavn bowed to pressure from customers and now fit twins in a lot of the bigger boats .

[@Ob1sdarkside]

Classic nordhavn and little ship, take me back to one of the first vids of yours I watched. Fantastic boat, the real deal.

Splendid tour as usual! And at less than 800K it's within every mans reach! Well, almost every man's reach.. Thank you so much!

[@DaveBartlett]

Admittedly, I'll probably never be able to afford to own a boat of any description, but that really doesn't excuse the fact that the one bit of this video that got me really excited is the little grey & red trackball that was visible to the right of the helm controls. I used to use one of that exact model with my first laptop absolutely years ago, and have since been unable to find another one, or one with a similar ball-on-side design, (and when space is restricted, a mouse just doesn't compare.) OK, sorry - back to the less affordable, but just as much unattainable hardware!

[@annottobay]

You are the best. I saw this boat on Nordhavn US website and did not give it a second look. It is your video that one me over. I think you are the everyman boat seller. Simple and to the point. You just seem to have the charisma for this job.

[@davecourage4986]

Nailed it again Nick. We're being spoiled by Nordhavns lately. Loving it.

[@D97mgtow]

I must admit I find these Nordhavns very interesting. I previously they were built somewhere in Scandinavia but recently found out they’re a US based company. I find them interesting because they have an old fashioned rustic type feel. Most modern yachts like Sunseekers, Princesses, Galeons etc all feel like the inside of a futuristic vodka bar, but Nordhavn certain has its own character. Just good old fashioned boats and I like that

[@trulsvelgaard5153]

The idea to the concept of Nordhavn boats are taken from small Norwegian fishing vessels able to survive the extreme weather off the weatherbeaten coast of Western Norway. That is why they called their boats "Nordhavn" which is a Norwegian word.

[@sidickammantoola3588]

The engine room is just " WOW "
