INTRODUCTION: Rogue Manor is hull number two of the Nordhavn 43 series and has been listed for sale by her original owners.  This is lightly used, locally maintained 43 that has explored up and down the Southern California coast and provided a wonderful escape platform for her owners who both still maintain full time jobs.  Getting in on the ground floor of the 43 design, Rogue Manor was set up as a flybridge boat with the traditional two stateroom layout. Most of the available factory options were selected at time of order including upgrading to Granite counter tops and many extras were added at delivery including an extensive navigation package, RIB inflatable, canvas, carpets, etc.

 

ACCOMMODATIONS & LAYOUT:
The Nordhavn 43 is a full displacement trawler designed for ocean voyaging and easily handled by a cruising couple. The engine room is easy to maintain with single Lugger dry stack main, wing engine and generator.  Active fin stabilizers and air conditioning help ensure comfort no matter where you are travelling. Nordhavn’s famous engineering of all plumbing, fuel and electrical systems are featured in the custom operator’s manual provided with each new build. Living spaces for two couples with their own private staterooms and common area pilothouse and saloon/galley make for a delightful environment inside with great visibility and ventilation throughout the boat.  Outside up top is a covered flybridge with two helm chairs and an extra seat, with dinghy storage aft and an excellent ground tackle arrangement forward of the Portuguese bridge.

 

The layout for Rogue Manor includes: Forward head and shower, Forward Guest stateroom with a double berth and desk, amidships Owner’s stateroom with ensuite head and shower, full width salon with custom teak table and enclosed raised pilothouse with a boat deck for tender storage behind and a Bimini capped flybridge with two helm chairs above. .

 

For two adventurous sailors it is hard to imagine a more suitable platform for extended cruising than the Nordhavn 43.  She is roomy enough inside to provide plenty of space for living and storage of gear, and robust on the outside ready for any sea conditions.  Two Nordhavn 43s have crossed the Pacific and one continued westward to complete a Circumnavigation – something only a handful of production power boats have ever accomplished.

 

COCKPIT

Boarding the 43 from astern you can either arrive by tender and access the cockpit from the swim platform or enter by dock through either side of the cockpit (opening doors port and starboard). The cockpit area is large enough to relax in chairs and has a large access hatch for the lazarette below which houses the SCUBA compressor, water maker, hot water heater, inverter, steering, batteries and lot of storage. The cockpit is protected by the boat deck overhang and there is a beautiful varnished teak caprail along the transom.  A cockpit shower for rinsing off after a swim using the large transom mounted ladder and several rod holders for fishing keep this an active area. You can go forward on the outside along the starboard side deck or enter into the salon through the Dutch door.

SALON

The salon and galley are all on the entry level.  The entire interior features beautiful teak wood joinery with accents of white laminate in some lower seating fixtures to accent the golden teak.  To port is a nice sized settee with storage below. On the starboard side is an L-shaped dinette (both settee and dinette comfortably upholstered in ultraleather) and the dining table is a custom ordered teak hi-lo that folds up into coffee table size or can seat six for dinner. The soles throughout Rogue Manor are solid teak planks and tastefully splashed with throw rugs.    Forward in the salon on the starboard side is a top load deep freezer and a set of steps leading up to the pilothouse (and passing the combo refrigerator/freezer cleverly concealed into the stack enclosure on the inboard side).

PILOTHOUSE

There is a Pompanette ultraleather covered helm chair for running the ship and all of the navigation and operational equipment has been carefully placed to maximize convenience of operation and to properly organize the visual priorities and orientation underway.  A sophisticated navigation package with all of the essentials is simple to operate and the reliable Morse cable controls for main engine operation make her a dream to pilot.   From the helm almost everything you need to touch is easily within reach and your view of the outside world is outstanding.

From the pilothouse you can exit out either of the Dutch doors on the sides. To port you would head aft to the boat deck and up to the flybridge. From the starboard side you can head aft to the cockpit or up forward to the Portuguese bridge or continue towards to bow to the anchor well and chain locker which is covered by a commercial Freeman Hatch.

 

GUEST STATEROOM

Staying inside and descending forward down the stairs to the staterooms there is a clever port light and corner alcove that provides natural light in the stairwell leading to the landing. From the landing you can go forward to the guest cabin.  The GSR (guest stateroom) has a comfortable double wide berth to port with storage below and a nice desk with swivel chair to starboard. Overhead hatches and side mounted port lights provide a lot of light and ventilation. There are hanging lockers and drawers for clothing and great access to the sole for checking on tank tops and for additional storage. Up front you have a battery bank for the bow thruster and windlass.  The head is a Groco K manual and seawater flush unit (smart back up plan for the freshwater plumbed electric toilet in the Master).   There is a nice sink mounted into the granite counter with storage and through hull access below and a medicine cabinet above. All the way forward is a nice shower stall with build in storage lockers, a palm tree embroidered shower curtain and a custom teak slatted floor adding an elegant and practical touch.

MASTER STATEROOM

Working back aft the master stateroom is below the pilothouse and just forward of the engine room. The Queen sized berth is athwartship with easy access to each side of the bed and bed stand counters on each side. There are also hanging lockers forward and aft both outboard to port.  A flat screen TV is mounted on the starboard bulkhead for easy viewing in bed. The head and shower are concealed behind a pocket door on the starboard side.  This toilet is a Raritan freshwater electric. There is a lot of storage with drawers and a medicine cabinet and the shower features a seat (beneath is the starboard Wesmar active fin stabilizer) and also has a nice teak slatted floor.   The Master stateroom is spacious and quiet.

ENGINE ROOM

Aft in the master is the full height door that allows you to enter the engine room (there is also a drop down hatch aft in the saloon for access). The engine room is well lit with AC and DC lighting and Rogue Manor has one of the original Lugger naturally aspirated engines which provides more elbow room for getting around. The main is on centerline, keel cooled with dry stack exhaust.  Both the Northern Lights generator (starboard) and Yanmar wing engine (port) are wet exhaust and all machinery has had regular oil changes and proper service interval maintenance.  The Nordhavn designed fuel valving system is easy to follow and in addition to an oil change system, stabilizer hydraulics reservoir and fire suppression system the engine room is carpeted and very easy to inspect when you are doing your engine room checks underway.

BOAT DECK

Outside behind the pilothouse is a spacious boat deck which uses the mast and boom to launch and retrieve the 11’2” Caribe rigid inflatable. There is a kayak with custom mounts to starboard as well as a survival life raft and fiberglass dock box for storage. The cabling spooled on the electric winches was upgraded to Spectra line from the original wire and the running rigging has been cleverly re-routed with the addition of some cam cleats to simplify the launching process.   Along the port side of the saloon is a flopper stopper pole which can easily be deployed at anchor to settle the rolling motion.

Rogue Manor, like all of us, can’t cheat time and is now seven years old, but the care and maintenance regime that has been actively pursued since day one has her looking bright and fresh and her beautiful appearance is not just skin deep, but probes to the heart of every system.  Regular washings, waxings and detailing are routine and an extensive overhaul in 2010 on her sixth birthday was undertaken to replace batteries and service all of the reliable hardware and equipment that had done such a good. In 2007 the owners took Rogue Manor on her only extended distance trip, the inaugural 1000 mile FUBAR Rally from Marina del Rey, CA to Cabo san Lucas, Mexico.
