    A beautiful little ship. Love the hull colour and teak capping. Amazing vessel - she will carry you safely to the ends of the earth. Bon voyage.

    Most popular man in the Nordhavn community right now😀. Great job!! Many of us have been waiting to see this here in the states. This could be the perfect boat for so many.

      I totally agree. Once we validate the fuel flow I think the orders will flood in.prospective owners should not worry about the time required to build as I have watched their processes very carefully and the N41 line is pretty efficient now. They are getting better and better. Hull No 3 about to move into our slot with deck going on top over next couple of weeks which is where we were at 7 months ago. I suspect at the very least to see a month come off build time compared to ours so possible September launch. Hull four is progressing and five about to come out of the mould.

    The ship turned out really nice even though he ordered it with few accessories. But I still want to get rid of one thing urgently, the owner's cabin is in the middle of the ship and the VIP cabin is not at the front, as he says here, the other way around. That's why the owner's cabin is a little larger, older people can go to bed more easily, the shower is easier to reach. I hope he and his wife will be happy on the ship and enjoy the owner's cabin in the middle of the ship!!!

    • @AwanuiNZ

    What a thorough walkthrough. You even took out the shower head and tried it for us. Never saw someone did it before.
    Nordhavn might not need to do a walkthrough by themselves or they just need to do a simple one.
    You've done a great job.

    Me and my wife and been looking at Nordhavn's for about 10 years. 10 years older now? Want to pay cash but do not really want the 40ft range as many go for because of price. Back and forth between the 50's and 40's. Docking etc... It would be permanent living. Also going across to Europe is a must want EXCEPT, Family in Florida and we live near to San Diego. Panama Canal etc.. all in the mixing pot. Going up to Washington to stay in the San Juan Islands and Alaska is preferred over Europe. Learning the tides thru southern Alaska and alot of study. We NEVER rush into anything to avoid doing something undesirable .

      It got deleted. Was an idea but decision was to exclude on N51’s. Would have been a cool feature but carting everything up there would be a pain…better to dish up downstairs and take dinner up. Very very roomy up there.

    Congrats on your new home! The walkabout of the upper deck in this segment was very complete, thank you. It is however a comment you made in the 'trailer' for part 2 (below deck) that I want to address: you are not well versed on mechanical things. It took me a while to decide to write this as it might come across as lecturing but be assured this post is nothing of the sort.
    You have an ocean going vessel with all the modern things that go into that. I would strongly suggest that you and your lady spend a lot of time sketching out the liquid management/isolation system(s) as well as becoming very well versed in what all the electrical gismos do and how to isolate and bypass them as required. The lives of you and your crew/passengers may well depend on your ability to act very quickly to any emergency that WILL arise.
    Start with a pad of paper and trace out all the piping including all the valves, know where they are if it is black etc. This advice goes to any other owners. A boat in the middle of an ocean is not a car - you can't pull over to the side of the road when you get a flat.
    Very nice vessel - have fun with her!
