GENERAL:

Inside Passage III is an Aft Pilothouse wide-body model of the Nordhavn 72/76 series with the bulbous bow and cockpit extended 4 feet.  This series lends itself very well to operation by owner, or by professional crew. 

The aft pilothouse version has a majestic form and an interior configuration favored by owners of the Nordhavn 72/76 series models.  She has all of the elegant transoceanic capability that continues to validate Nordhavn’s reputation as the premier producer of passagemaking motoryachts.  US and Canadian import duty have been paid. 

ACCOMMODATIONS & LAYOUT:

Layout – General:

The interior arrangement - for living and for mechanical spaces - emphasizes onboard comfort and operation throughout extended passages. 

Entering from the cockpit into the salon area:  The interior is beautifully crafted in teak, with teak and spruce cabin soles throughout.  The galley is laid out one step up on a riser transition at the starboard forward end of the salon.  Opposite the galley to port there is a day head, a series of steps leading up to the pilothouse, and another series of steps leading down to the guest cabins, utility room, and engine room.  A passageway forward leads down an easy two-step transition to the master stateroom.  The master head is forward of the master stateroom.

Down one deck, and generally between station 3 and station 6, there are two guest cabins (each with its own head), and a utility room with laundry appliances and a freezer.  The entrance to the engine room is through the utility room.

Access to the pilothouse is from the port side of the salon/galley area up a stairway.  The pilothouse also includes two pilot berths, day head, and C-shaped dinette aft of the helm chair and command console.  Inside the pilothouse to port, steps to port provide interior access to the flybridge from the pilothouse.  

Interior Comfort Detail:

As in the standard Nordhavn approach, there is extensive noise control and sound attenuation measures incorporated into the construction throughout, including noise damping in the hull in the area of the propeller, 3” lead/foam insulation in the engine room overhead, and 2” in its sides.  Insulation is covered with Soundown aluminum panels.  The salon and galley soles have a 2” Nida-core system with a ¼” Soundown de-coupler layer.  There are also insulated bulkheads in living areas and rubber gaskets in laminated interior doorjambs, among other measures.

The main engine dry exhaust system results in engine sound reduction on deck as well as in the interior living spaces.                                               

Main Salon:

A beautiful custom dining table and four chairs are situated to port.  The table has sunburst and compass rose inlaid veneer patterns.  A settee lounge and coffee table are located to starboard.  Lockers extend along the port side.  The salon layout creates a wide-open and airy feeling.  The teak and spruce sole is covered with a bound edge carpet.  There are custom accordion shades on the windows and door, tucked up under the teak valances.

A Sony 42” flat screen TV is installed on a lift in the joiner work on the port side.  A Bose sound system completes the salon entertainment system.

Galley:

The galley is one-step up at the forward end of the salon.  Its position relative to the salon provides a very social connection between the two areas.  A lighted wind cabinet faces the salon.

The galley is well appointed with the following appliances and equipment:

• Granite counter tops with radiuses edges

• Tile floor

• (2) Sub-Zero #700 TCI refrigerator/freezers with icemakers, s/s faces, and custom positive latches for one-handed operation

Master Stateroom and Head:

It is an easy transition from the salon and galley area to the full-beam master stateroom and head.  The king-size bed is on centerline and there is unimpeded access all around the bed, and to the desk and clothes storage areas.  The master stateroom includes the following features:

• Custom Handcraft Mattress Company (HMC) mattress

• 32” Plasma screen TV mounted on a lift in an alcove forward in the stateroom.  DVD player in cabinet.

Guest Staterooms and Heads:

To starboard, the second guest stateroom has twin beds separated by a bedside table, and a head ensuite with the same appointments as the port stateroom.

Both guest staterooms feature custom Handcraft Mattress Company mattresses.  There are heat and air-conditioning controls in each stateroom

Engine Room:

The engine room connects with the cockpit lazarette through a gasketed aluminum door for all-conditions access to steering gear, mechanical and electrical systems, battery banks, air conditioning, Kabola hot water system heating boiler, and other gear that may be stowed in the large volume of space there.

Engine room ventilation systems include:  (2) 230vac 50/60hz intake blowers, (1) 230vac 50/60hz exhaust blower, Ruskin fire/smoke dampers, and auto shutdown for blowers and closure for dampers by Seafire actuation.  The lazarette is well illuminated by AC fluorescent and DC overhead lighting.

COMMENTS:

In 2005, this Nordhavn 76 was involved in a collision with a freighter while off of the West Coast during her initial delivery.  As a testament to her solid construction, she continued north for another 1000 miles to the Pacific Northwest, after a brief stop for inspection.  The resulting damage was largely cosmetic. Repairs were completed in the Pacific Northwest by a well-respected yard, and invite close scrutiny.  As part of the improvements made at that time, her gelcoat finish was entirely painted in Awlgrip at a cost of over $200,000.  After the repairs, she was sold to the present owner. Before the purchase, Inside Passage III was thoroughly inspected by hull and machinery surveyors and was found to be in superb condition. With a minor list of survey recommendations completed, Inside Passage III successfully cruised over 3,000 miles from Seattle through British Columbia and Alaska, and back home to Seattle again during the summer of 2008.

Inside Passage III is now ready to take her new owners in the comfort and safety, anywhere in the world they wish to go!

EXCLUSIONS:  None.  To be sold as sitting and equipped

ASKING: $3,395,000
