ACCOMMODATIONS & LAYOUT:

"Rejoice" is an exceptional, optimally maintained, Nordhavn 43 and shows like new. She incorporates the finest combination of factory upgrades including (amongst others) a wing engine, generator, TRAC stabilizers, air conditioning and Viking Stove. These factory upgrades have been supplemented with custom enhancements essential for versatile cruising, such as the finest navigational equipment with appropriate backup, water maker and Hurricane heating system. The result is a vessel that is set up to cross oceans and venture on extended long-range cruises. Each system has been thoroughly tested and used, so she is ready to go at a moments notice. If you are considering a non-flybridge 43, this one is loaded. She has been actively cruised on both coasts of the US. “Rejoice” has been a great pleasure for her owners to operate and is being reluctantly sold due to health issues.

The Nordhavn 43 is an outstanding world cruising trawler and her long range heritage is a testament to Jeff Leishman’s design and the “bullet proof” build and engineering that PAE is so famous for.

Originally conceived as the answer to the “What would have worked better?” question we raised during our 2000 – 2001 circumnavigation with a Nordhavn 40, the 43 has proven to be a very popular yacht for cruising couples. Many of her design features take a page from the venerable Nordhavn 46 which she has essentially replaced in the line up.

“Rejoice” is a full displacement trawler type vessel with proven long-range capabilities.  She has a nice entry cockpit with boarding doors on both sides and an access door to her swim step.  Below the cockpit is a large lazarette that gives excellent access to the steering gear, the inverter, hot water tank, heater and watermaker, as well as providing ample space for storage.

The saloon is entered from the cockpit through a robust watertight and double dogged commercial strength Dutch door.  The saloon, a very large room that connects with the galley, has an open feel mostly due to the large sized windows finished with teak trim.  “Rejoice’s” interior is tastefully decorated with Ultraleather upholstery and features beautiful teak wood floors highlighted throughout the boat by custom two inch reveal carpet.  In the saloon, custom Duette window shades provide the privacy one requires while dock side and helps control temperature inside. To starboard is a comfortable “U” settee and a fixed table.  To port is another settee with a 26” LCD TV mounted in the aft port corner.  There is significant storage space beneath both settees. 

The elegant galley is highlighted by a 24’ Viking stove, two Sub Zero refrigerators, a freezer, microwave and trash compactor. Going up a few steps you arrive in the spacious pilothouse that features a Stidd helm chair forward with an excellent nav/com display arrangement and a bench seat with table and watch berth aft.  There are two robust watertight and double dogged commercial strength Dutch doors on either side of the pilothouse leading to the Portuguese bridge.

The staterooms are forward and below. The guest stateroom has a wide double berth to port, a desk with upgrade swing-out seat to starboard and its own head and shower.  The guest stateroom gets plenty of light from three portholes as well as overhead hatches in the stateroom and head.  The master stateroom is located amidships with a queen size island berth athwartships (that has a custom Tempur-Pedic mattress) and a separate head with very large shower.  The owners’ stateroom is lighted by two portholes as well as one in the shower area.

The engine room is accessed by a soundproof door from the master (or through the sole of the saloon) and offers an unusually large serviceable area for a boat this size.  The main engine is on centerline, surrounded by a stainless steel rail for safety, the wing engine aft to port and generator aft to starboard.  An excellent fuel management/filtration system is located on the starboard wall.

The foredeck has two lockable deck boxes for storage as well as an upgrade heavy duty chain stopper for the main rode.  There is a large, accessible, chain locker with two shelves, one on the port side for a second rode and one on the starboard for storage.  Custom hooks have been added above the starboard shelf for line storage. 

The boat deck is accessed from the Portuguese bridge and stores a 12.5’ Avon tender with a 25HP outboard and a large lockable deck box for additional storage.

“Rejoice” is hull number 8 of the series which now is closing in on 40 orders so she provides and excellent value for someone who is ready to go cruising now.   Replacement cost for a new Nordhavn 43 approaches $1,000,000 and there is a bit of a wait for to build and commission. 

Several long passages have already been chalked up on 43s including three Pacific Ocean crossings.  A sister ship (4318) left San Diego in 2007 on a circumnavigation and has already made it into the Mediterranean.  If you are looking for an excellently maintained, solid passage maker, that is exceptionally equipped, comfortable and secure in all conditions, and a boat that is not only durable and dependable, but also has a luxurious fit and finish that will enhance your enjoyment at sea, then you deserve to learn more about this very special Nordhavn 43, “Rejoice”.
