    Man, them boots were made for walkin'. She was in Lauderdale not too long ago and previously spotted in St. Maartin. Maybe Thom Conboy can chime-in if he sees the post. He's the past president of Intermarine and now Heesen's marketing director.

    Thanks for the continuing virtual view!

    It's a 76' Nordhavn. Available in either single or twin screw...

    Nice Boats, their web site is one of the best I've seen. The photo gallery makes one want to buy their boat just to be part of the group.

    I did a review on their 55', but would rather have their 72'. Here's the 55' review...

    I think the popularity of Nordhavn's shows us that form truly follows function. Historically, Nordhavn's have been a little hard to look at, but as there sizes have grown, so has there aesthetic appeal. Unfortunately, the price of these boats has followed suit as well.

    Great feature story!!
    I really like these boats, maybe it's because I used to own a Saab.
    Although crossing the ocean on a single screw 330hp John Deere engine makes me faint.

    Just think about the savings in fuel. You could also put an outboard on the back if you wanted a second engine;)

    While kickers are an option for a sailboat, or a true displacement hull... finding an outboard with a shaft long enough to place a prop beneath the running the surface of a large planing hull isn't going to happen. N-Havn addresses this with auxilary power plants that can be brought online in case of a main engine failure.

    I agree on single screw concerns. Redundancy wins of fuel savings every time! ;)
