When Nick first stepped into the salon, I thought yeah, nice enough but not overly special. But MY GOODNESS the further he went with the tour, the more impressive it became. What a great boat. Thanks for showing us around Nick.
You should have known from the title.....
if you know, you know!
@@chriswhite4915 two words, 'classic' and 'Nordhavn'.
18 month ago I didn't know what a Nordhavn was ...!
6:25 mark is where you'll find a nice place to tuck yourself away with a good book!
(Nick laughed a bit as he said this knowing full well I would note it)
“Redundancy”
“Mechanical”
“Little ship feel”
“Offshore”
Those are the words that make my eyes glitter
Same! This boat has seriously caught my eye. While we have no immediate plans to cross oceans we have thought about crossing the Atlantic eventually and exploring the Med. Looks like it would be a good boat for a couple to do some serious cruising and I love the idea of being able to stay away from the docks for possibly weeks. I'm wondering how much that tiny crane can lift though because we tend to like a decent sized dinghy. I'm sure you could probably upgrade the crane though.
None of them are nice or desirable if you are talking about your wife.
You forgot Classic Nordhavn
The engineering spaces are astonishing for a 41 foot boat.
@Atticus Xavier Same. This is definitely working.
Check out ranger tugs they do the same with even smaller boats

@@alanswanson1952 no they dont..not 900 gallons
@@alanswanson1952 I love Ranger Tugs, and yes, they pack a lot of functionality into their boats (my brother just sold his classic R-29), but comparing Ranger Tugs to Nordhavns is really an apples to oranges comparison.
You can hear the grin in Nicks voice when he says "tuck yourself away with a good book".
I just want this to be my home forever and sail to every corner of the world! Amazing, thanks so much Nick!
My pleasure!
With 6 knots, it will actually takes forever :D
The inland waterways capability didn't even occur to me!
You could probably get into some *very* interesting countries.
@AQUAHOLIC, can you get to the Czech Republic from the Med?
@@MesaperProductions No, but you can get to Slovakia or Austria if you got to the black sea and then up the Danube river. Unless there is some canal into the Check republic, closest you can get is Bratislava,SL or Vienna, AU.
@@MesaperProductions No, but rumour has it Sevastopol to Siberia is definetly do-able.
I have watched several hundred yacht tours in the last two years. Mostly displacement or semi displacement trawler style anywhere from 30 foot to 60 foot and even some super yachts just for fun. I keep coming back to this N41 as the one for me. I do believe that bought new this little trawler yacht would be the least expensive to maintain and operate. It has the ability to cross an ocean and explore canals and rivers with low underpasses. It’s the versatility that I love so much. It’s only real draw back is the one head, but then I need to remember that I grew up in a household with two parents and four siblings with one bathroom!
I want to travel the globe using waterways and I am NOT in a hurry. This little N41 is just the ticket to make it happen.
I like the idea of One head because il give me least problema ti think of, least conduct , etc...
In the configuration for a family of four would be not so good but Imagine a couple cruising with occasional guests... 😅
But the thing that got me was the service room with full space for food reservoir and huge freezer. 🤩 It give ti me a feels of the most affordable survival boat 😂😂 for escaping in some Pacific atoll if things go down in the world 🤣
Same here , good size for a couple
Think a lot of people have missed the point here, it’s not meant to be a good looking, gin palace for posing on at weekends. It’s a proper live aboard, blue water cruiser capable of crossing oceans. Your average power boat could cross the channel but not much more. I appreciate this boat for what it is, a great piece of engineering with the kind of built in redundancy needed for confidently cruising offshore I have only ever owned sports cruisers, similar to smugglers but I would love to own one of these one day.
Keep up the great work Nick
agreed. The extra freezer and large washing machine boosted the desirability of this cruiser to me.
It isn't the sexiest thing in the harbour, but it might just be the best designed. What a great use of space.
Sexy normally means fair weather coastal only, but Nordhaven means ocean 😎
Sounds like the wife.
Ha that’s funny because I disagree, I hate the use of the inside, so busy, BUT agree a stunning looking boat!
Can't wait to watch this with my coffee when I get to work
Sounds very cozy. Now I want coffee too! :)
hmm now im going to go and make myself a coffee
The coffee brew-starting comment! :D
I actually made coffee now, tasty!
Exact same thoughts here!
I had a cappuccino to this one, as to all of them ☕
Absolutely the best boat for the money I've seen on your channel, and I've seen them all :)
Hear, hear !!
Hardy 50 does it for me.
I think it's safe to say Nordhavn are my favourite builders. Absolutely adore this boat. Thank you for showing us around it.
Glad you enjoyed it
I have always thought the only thing I don't like about them was the cherry wood looked too 1990's. But yes they have entered the 21st century, the interior is fantastic and now I can't fault them except being out of my price range. 😥
Don’t say it

Nick: little ship feel
Classic nordhavn
This one wasn’t a James Bond feel.
Love Nordhavn ! Yep, I'm still here Nick...... Z
This boat isn't champagne and sun pads
Électrique 6 cabine
I cannot think of a more iconic duo; Aquaholic Nick & Nordhavn. Only a seatrail could have made this video better. What a grand little ship. Well done @Nick👍
This may be the most impressive ~40 footer I've ever seen. Thanks Nick. I hope Nordhavn has planned enough capacity for this hull, I have a feeling these are going to be VERY popular.
Yep. I think they're close to hull #50 already!
Seriously, that is the best space, equipment and technical installations I have ever seen on a 40 footer. Well done Nordhavn!
Much more Nordhavn, please! They are awesome!
I totally agree but I notice the lack of a bridge on this like all Nordhavns I have seen on any site or channel. That was always my favorite feature, a true ships bridge even on a smaller boat. I can only hope the nordhavn 148 comes out this year. What a tour that would be
With you all the way mr sammy bit let down if im honest , dont get me wrong its a stuning boat , but its not really classic nordhavn........ , its modern nordhavn and as lovely as it is its just not quite the same
Agree and waiting.....
@@taffinator9585 For something simultaneously transpac and canal ready, it's pretty darned impressive. In my book, the best designed Nord in a long time. Looks like something Beebe himself would have liked, after having cruised long enough to give up his military obsession with a separate pilot house for a more social Dashew and Cornell style "great room" cruising experience for an experienced couple.
Only thing which scared me a bit, was the open "stairwell" in the inline galley, in a boat short enough to pitch a bit... I'm guessing/hoping a divider of sorts could be placed there.
But twins; designing the boat to work with engines small enough to be simple; the low airdraft; and easy access to everything (although a watertight door to the stabie fin compartment may have been worth it if you hit a "whale" out in the open...).
Also, the wide side decks. Even if that comes at the expense of an "open, airy" interior and thrown-around-in-a-blow ( :) ) room. Ditto a single cabin option. They're obviously targeting this boat to people intent on using it the way most long range cruisers do: As a long term home for two (2) people. And really good tankage. Not just the miminal needed to make the "longest passage" on a "standard" circumnavigation itinerary. But indeed some capacity to improvise, explore and not suffer range anxiety.
Heck, I'm not sure, but it may just be light enough to be able to make use of a series drogue, for real belt and suspender types. If so, it's about the only true production "passagemaker" which can. Wouldn't want to bring a drogue for anything this big back on board, but it does beat the alternative should it come down to it. Bigger boats are simply way too big ad heavy, and are stuck relying on their own broach resistance should things go really sideways....
All in all, I can't really think of much I would change. Aside from the price, obviously, since all boats are costly, and really well engineered, built and specced ones are even more so. But for what you get, this does not at all look to be a bad deal. I bet covid and social distancing have pushed order books long, hence delivery dates far out, though....
One important thing you do get, by having a boat this "small" despite being "capable", is freedom from having to maintain anything bigger and more complicated all the darned time. It's nice to be on a boat with a full gym, room for toys, an outside bridge, and especially a little dirtbike to crane ashore and get around on. But then it's also nice to have a crew maintaining it all and keeping it clean out in the harsh marine environment. Whereas if I have to do that myself, especially for long cruises and passages, I don't really want much more than I need. And few strictly "need" more boat than this to get wherever they're planning to go. I'd rather travel in this, and put the "savings" over not going bigger into renting a hotel suite somewhere, should I suffer from excessive cabin fewer after a long time on board.
For now, bopping around the Baleares is about all I have the time and inclination to do on a boat. Rendering any Nordhavn a bit overkill. As well as a bit slow, and lacking in party space for Ibiza. But for more "serious" boating, at an at least somewhat realistic price and level of complexity, this is now a new, clear numero uno on my personal list of powerboats to keep an eye on. Enough so that it's made a Leishman fan out of me. Never thought guys who are now successfully selling boats 20+ times the size and price of this to the rich and famous, would put so obviously much thought and resources into something this practical for more regular boaters.
I was once in love with Nordhavn...until I read accounts from owners who complained of wave slap on the bow. The bow is quite vertical and the incessant pounding of waves onto the bow gives the boats a shuddering feel. The semi displacement hull also isn't conducive to ocean crossing due to allowing the boat to be shifted and moved by following waves that come upon the stern. Semi displacement speeds do however allow the vessel to ramp up in speed to out run an up-coming weather system and return to port before the swell becomes uncomfortable. But for myself I want a flybridge, a hull that delivers stability even in rough seas...I want comfort and economy...and complete reliability.
I usually watch your videos when i have lunch or dinner, but I saw Nordhavn and had to click immediately
“Long-distance fully autonomous cruising.” Love it.
Winning the lottery just got more urgent. A beautiful mini ship. Nordhavns are just so desirable.
I've only ever watched Aquaholic boat or yacht reviews. i don't know anything about sailing or boating but yet I'm very confident that Nick is the best reviewer out there. thanks for posting.
Yeah, this is classic Nordhavn, Nick. Note the veneer lining the *inside* of drawers and lockers. Also the woodgrain matches on all the exterior surfaces. Nordhavn woodwork is always beautiful; even on their smallest yachts. I love this boat.
I like the fact that it *doesn't* look like a penthouse on the water. Sturdy, practical, pot holders built into the stove, which is a great item. And it isn't cluttered with servo and motor driven toys to wear out over time. It's simple and capable.
I would absolutely love a boat like that. Convert that 2nd cabin into a 'home' office, set out from port and never look back. Absolutely beautiful.
do it... you know you want to... don't have to buy brand new either... can get a serious long-distance offshore cruiser like this Nordhavn for 250k (ok, no small money but if you were seriously selling up and taking out a marine mortgage, entirely do-able I suspect)
I was thinking the same thing. Convert the guest cabin into work space/ storage. You can easily single hand a voyage with this vessel and if time is not a concern then the whole world is possible. Even easier with a extra hand aboard!
jesus they've crammed a 60 foot boat into a 41 foot boat ... it's like a swiss army boat so many features, so clean thoroughly well designed ... when i saw the price for a 41 foot boat i gulped ... but it that price it's worth it ... thanks for sharing such an amazing yacht Nick
When you opened the engine room hatch I swore I heard an angel's chorus. Amazing.
A top quality channel deserves the best comments!
Zeppelin pilot: I'll just switch on the NO SMOKING sign and oh, Aquaholic has posted a new vid.
Yeah that's gorgeous, could quite happily potter around on that one. 👍😁❤️
😄
I rewatch this and almost all of the other Nordhaven models repeatedly. So good!
_Classic Nordhavn_ .. * happy boat sounds *
Finally, a yacht I can run myself, with transatlantic range, so I can leave town whenever I've overstayed my welcome and relocate thousands of miles away.
The Nordhavn boats are always my favorites. Beautiful and functional boats that appeal to our inner explorer.
And singlehandedly Nordhavn have just wiped out the competition in the small boat market!
The build quality, the fact that a 41' boat has a "utility room", the amount of storage, the fact it has a crane to carry a tender or jetski on the roof & lets not forget nearly three THOUSAND nautical miles of range!
Yes, you'd have to be a fairly confident sailer to take a 41' boat across the Atlantic, but in this you actually could do it!
Classic Nordhavn!
“Classic Nordhavn” *Everybody drinks*
alcoholic boat :D
@@murzello and suddenly the channel name has a hole different meaning XD
LMFAO so true
Seems to be a floating bar. It entices you to drink at every turn.
I was about to get a beer when I read this lol
Thanks, Nick! I’m a real Nordhavn fan and this boat doesn’t disappoint.
Awesome! :)
I envy people who are easily pleased.
What a wonderful vessel. Nordhavn has really checked off all the boxes for a complete cruising boat with the N41! Definitely at the top of my list along with the N43.
An absolute dream boat! Utility room with extra freezers, and laundry. Mechanical engines and no computers in sight! An analog lover's dream! No possible hacking like with the superyacht 'Go'. Great video, as always!
If nothing else, this gets an A+ for the intelligent location of the shore power couplings...too often I see a multi-million dollar yacht with power cables hanging over the side and being a tripping hazard. Bravo!
FINALLY!!! I have been waiting for this episode for over a year!
Hope it was worth the wait!
Oh that I was 35 years younger and considerably more financial, this is for me. Thanks Nick
Because of you and your channel my youtube is now full of content creators showing amazing ships I will never own, except no one does a walk through like you! I watch every video you post and love it.
Wow, thanks!
I'm sold. The first video I watched on this channel was a Nordhavn. I love them.
This is 100% my favourite brand of boat! This is stunning 😻
Practical , solidly built, quality,long distance cruising , nothing likely to go wrong ,take anyway, no showy when entering harbour ......sexy it isn’t , but I still want one 😄for all the reasons I’ve just mentioned ....👍good job Nick
Has the grace and style of a block of flats.
This has got to be my favorite yacht tour you've done yet. What a brilliantly designed boat. I'd much more prefer this as a live aboard boat then the ultra luxurious things out there. Feels like an achievable goal for fulfilling your dreams of traveling the world in your own boat. Many of the other vessels seem like play things for the super rich.
What a classic Nordhavn, I would love to cruise the world with this! I can’t believe the engineering space on a 41 foot boat it’s amazing. Brilliant Nick!
My dream is to someday be the Extremely Proud Owner of a Nord.
As far as I'm concerned they're the best engineered and built boats a civilian can own.
Everything Nordhavn does is above and beyond even unto a commercial level and beyond.
Thanks for the great tour of an amazing vessel...
Yup... I’ve seen every video since the beginning, and this is the one. What an incredible piece of kit.
Two success stories. Old school Nordhavn & new boy Aquaholic. Excellent Nick.
Another exclusive here on Aquaholic! Must be one of the fastest growing nautical channels on UA-cam. Congrats Nick!
Thanks!
Dammit, nearly a full house on aquaholic bingo. Nothing was getattable. Superb little ship though. I like, a lot !! Xxxxxx
Awesome!😁😁
Nick left the “go out and stay out” right to the end, had me worried there for a bit. I will never be able to afford one of these, even if I could, I doubt I’d be able to drive it, let alone figure out the technical stuff, but that doesn’t stop me loving these videos.
This is the one. Stunning and supremely capable. Perfect.
Chain as a center of gravity issue. Never thought of that! Glad they did!
Wow...Wow.. I love the finishing onboard. She looks like a proper worker, topped off with luxury finishes. You can see by the high rails and and the overhead hand rails, that she's a tough lady and can really handle what is thrown her way. Another great look around a beautifully finished boat. Thx for sharing.
Now that's a real proper boat, not some fancy yacht. The engineering that's gone into this is amazing! Thank you Nick and Jack le Sac for the tour :)
Pretty cool that it was docked right next to Powerplay (MOD70) which just set a Fastnet record!
So glad I watched this review Nick. Amazing boat! The Ultimate mini ship. The feeling of seaworthy takes on a new level here.
Great little boat. Love how they upgraded it. Stableizers and the simple non complex engines. Very easy to maintain and trouble shoot. Plus the drop down mast. I expect that this revised model will be a success there and in the U.S. , along everywhere else.
Would love to cruise the Carribean with this. What a spectacular explorer.
You sell Nordhavn better than the Nordhavn people. Brilliant tour. Can't wait till you can show the N80.
I have always been a big fan of Nordhavn’s and have been so looking forward to seeing the new model, boy I have not been disappointed, this boat is just perfect in every way, my absolute dream boat. Thank you so much for arranging this tour Nick . Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant .
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
A boat designed with great respect for the power of the Ocean.
Great value for an owner operator. Has clever designs and the fact that you have a utility room is amazing.
The bow eye is hilarious. 0:07
I love Nordhavn boats. They look rugged and like a boats inside and out, with range and open water capability. I always appreciate the Nordhavn single engine design with the small limp home backup engine design. This one of course has twin engines, but two smaller engines.
Thanks Nick! That is an amazing boat for only being 41 ft. I didn't expect that amount of space in places like the engine room or for it to have a utility room etc...Nordhavn boats definitely have some of the best layouts and even though this is their smallest it isn't lacking in features or serious ocean going capability. That's a lot of boat for the money IMO.
Just the perfect family long distance cruiser / explorer, so many practical aspects in an easily handled package. Amazing!!
Nick steps foot on a yacht that doesn't reach 30+ knots - the state of the UK yacht market, I presume. Everyone in a hurry to get back to their overnight berths. Always great reviews.
This is the kind of boat I dream of owning and living on one day!
Nordhavn never fail to impress, but I think they have really outdone themselves with this N41. An incredible amount of boat there for the size, with the only real sacrifice being that of speed. Sure, the hatch to the utility area seemed like it might be a bit of a pain and a squeeze every time you want to access the larger freezer, or carry some laundry up or down, but that's expected really on any boat under 50'. Heck, most boats under 60' don't even have that much freezer capacity at all (though I do acknowledge many have several times the speed so you'd not need to spend as long between ports either). Amazing little vessel.
Nordhavn is such a well constructed yacht. Also they are very particular on comfort and safety. A true master yacht.
That "utility room" is fantastic.
The build quality of these boats is there for all to see -no squeaky chipboard floors here! Not the best looking boat around, but I would take one of these any day (if I had the money!). The ability to just sail off into the sunset and not worry about something breaking down, the long range capability, the comfort, the chance just watch the miles go by at 6 knots and not worry about filling up in another 200 miles....... This could be a best seller!
I'd like to add ,the rear of the boat with the railings is perfect for fishing (personally i'd insist on holster type gear attached to the railings for safety sake). Under boats like this , lies a huge larder if you know to to catch , despatch and cook.
@@PHILCHUDS Yep, some additions for sea fishing would be a must. spent 12 months on Ascension Island, so catching, gutting and cooking fresh tuna, wahoo, dorado etc.... were weekly events!
Easy to see that the designers know a thing or two about boating.
What a little pearl of a craft, thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!
When I first saw it I decided, well it's not the best looking "Wow factor" boat in the marina...
BUT, actually seeing what it can do and the proper engineeering plus redundancy built in, it is the boat I'd seriously think about selling my house and cars for and live a life on the waves!
Absolutely Brilliant boat!!
Wow, what a boat! I love everything about it! It would be perfect in the Great Lakes and the intercoastal waterway.
Great use of space - but missing the water maker? cancel that trip across the Atlantic - great review - love the Nordhavns thanks Nick!
It is pre-plumbed for one. Just pick your brand you want and install it yourself. They wanted to keep the cost down for first-time buyers. Not everyone wants to cross the Atlantic :)
@@MrRich2u That's an odd thing to leave out - even if not crossing the Atlantic - hanging out in the Med, or in the Bahamas - I am not sure the cost of that would stop a buyer... but $710k isn't chump change.
That has got to be one of the best boats you have ever reviewed
Proper breakfast TV viewing this morning! Well done Nick! I've shot some 40 foot trawlers recently on my channel and can't wait to get my hands on a Nordhavn to do a comparison. Keep up the great work!
4:10 that foiling tri looks like a serious bit of kit
Are you sure you’ve not made a mistake, and it is in fact a 51’?! It’s massive!
Really enjoyable tour of a ‘classic Nordhavn’, thanks 👍
Stunning. What a fantastic boat to spend the rest of your days cruising the canals and rivers of Europe.
The first Nordhavn video not to hear the word 'getatable'. So many times I thought it was coming Nick, you really had me!
really like the more mechanical stuff
Yes. Classic Nordhavn. I do like this boat.
Hey Nick. I am from the Uk and live 5 minutes from Dana point Marina in California the Home of Nordhavn. I saw the first 2 N41 on the dock over a year ago as i was pulling out of the Harbor. They where stunning looking as i was not even sure most people knew that they had Launched this New addition. If i was not going to buy a sailboat this would be my choice for sure. Video is great. Cheers mate.
Nordhavn’s have become my favorite just from watching your videos Nick. Love this boat. Great video as always!
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a great boat. That seems like the epitome of "you get what you pay for" and if you pay a little more you get the quality that comes with it.
As much as I love Nordhavn, in my taste, it's a little small; 55 - 68 is perfect. As always, a perfect video!
They will happily sell you a bigger one! 😄
I think I agree with you but its horses-for-courses.... for a couple sans kids or regular stay over guests this is an awesomely capable bit of kit for spending months going anywhere.... for me, with a wife and two kids, I'm looking more at the Selenes, Flemings, Nordhavn 50+, heck even the Adagio's... all in the 50ft+ category mainly for the 3 berths and the Portuguese bridge.... (I've ruled out Traders, not seaworthy enough from what I've read)
What the...??? It's not my birthday, but I get an Aquaholic review of a Nordhavn?? :D Great tour as usual, Nick, and I'm VERY impressed with this little ship; quite cozy, and a LOT more space than I would have thought.
One of the best boats I've seen, it has so many features that even bigger boats dont have.
Nick has this special way of presenting the boats that everytime I watch his video I would want to purchase the boat,,, Amazing,,, He knows how to chose his words,,, Great job on a really beautiful little gem,,, VCery well priced for what it offers,,, Thanks,,,
Glad you like them!
I have been waiting for a proper video tour of these . Thanks Nick!! Here's hoping you can do a sea trial of one of these. I would love to know what it's like underway. Comfort and noise levels, etc.
Fantastic indeed! I'm about $700k shy of being able to buy one, but this is exactly what I would want. I don't need speed - I just want to cross the Atlantic or go to the Caribbean. The access to that utility room was not designed with American buyers in mind... Great Baby Nordhavn, great tour. Thank you Nick for showing my favorite kind of boat!
Awesome, found your channel about 2 weeks ago and have watched almost half of your content. Been using your channel to built what if fantasies in my head. I really do love the nordhavns and would def go for one if I ever had the finances for one. Great boats to see the world in, thank you Nick for making these vids. They really help with my depression.
Welcome aboard! 🙂
Ok for those who aren't up on their English lingo. A "hob" was a iron bar that was used to hang a Dutch oven or pot on that would swing over the fire in a fireplace. Our wonderful English brethren have adapted this to refer to a stovetop. As usual once I hear one of these phrases I tend to unconsciously use it in everyday conversations. I'm still working on the phrase "Bang on".
I think my fav is "Can do".
There it is... my future home!!
Now this is my type of boat.. I love the schematics of the wiring and pluming.. excellent! THANK YOU for covering the bridge as well as you did.. to me that is one of the most important parts of the boat and a make or break area as far as buying a boat is concerned.. Dang a utility room.. this truly is my kind of boat!!! I really like this one Nick.. Thanks..
Thanks Nick, another great tour, I just love Nordhavn and this new 41 even this size it does not disappoint, looks like great value, the attention to detail and its rugged practicality is superb. Thanks again for the great tour
My pleasure!
