Nordic 40 � A true blue water cruiser.This boat is ready to go cruising anywhere. World-renowned boat designer Bob Perry created the Nordic 40, which soon came to be widely regarded as a ground-breaking design for blue-water cruising. The performance cruiser, with a modified three-quarters keel and skeg-hung rudder, sails superbly in light or heavy air. Perry designed her for cruising, and she boasts ample storage space, is well-balanced, points well, and gives the crew exceptional comfort in the full range of sailing conditions faced while cruising around the world. During the last five years, the boat has been systematically upgraded and overhauled. New engine and sails, rebuilt mastfoot area, new electronics where necessary, new rigging where necessary, a Jordan Series Drogue with chainplates built to specifications - every system was addressed with a mind towards safety and ease of cruising. Skye is in excellent condition for live-aboard cruising. The maintenance and upgrades have been rigorously documented for your benefit and examination. Skye has been actively cruising for the past three years, sailing from New York to New Zealand and now Australia. She is truly ready to leave the dock tomorrow.
