Overview

Introducing Daphne. This 2007 Nordhavn N43 is the ultimate vessel for those seeking adventure, reliability, and comfort on the open seas. Built for blue water cruising and long-range passage making, this trawler is the ideal choice for an owner who values safety, redundancy, and the capability to put some serious miles under the keel.

Crafted by Nordhavn - Pacific Asian Enterprises and designed by Jeff Leishman, Daphne has been carefully maintained by its fastidious owner, who is the second owner since new. With a rugged yet elegant design, it offers a perfect blend of performance and luxury, making it a standout in its class.

Powered by a reliable Lugger 105hp main engine with only 1,590 hours and supported by a Yanmar wing engine with circa 120 hours, this vessel delivers peace of mind for long-distance travel. Coupled with a Northern Lights 10kVA generator and a fuel capacity of 4,500 litres, it boasts an impressive cruising range exceeding 3,500 nautical miles at the desired hull speed of a steady 7-8 knots. The TRAC hydraulic stabilisation system utilises fins powered from the main engine that ensures a smooth and comfortable ride, even in the challenging conditions this vessel was built for.

Inside, the Nordhavn N43 is designed for extended voyages and liveaboard comfort. Its two-cabin layout includes a full beam midship master stateroom with ensuite and a forward queen double cabin and study nook with ensuite, accommodating up to eight people when utilising the saloon and watchkeeper cot in the raised pilot house. The two bathrooms, each with separate showers, provide convenience and privacy, while the three-zone reverse cycle air conditioning keeps the interior comfortable in all climates.

The spacious saloon-level galley is equipped for serious cruising, featuring Sub-Zero refrigeration, a chest freezer, and a gas oven with a cooktop. Ample storage and factory-installed plumbing for a water maker make this vessel ready for extended stays at sea.

For the discerning mariner, Daphne, along with all Nordhavns, are certified hull and construction of CE Cat A. She comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of electronics, including Furuno Nav-Net plotters, radar, autopilot, and Icom VHF and HF radios. Safety features are extensive, with CE-certified offshore safety equipment, a life raft, EPIRB, auto bilge pumps, and an advanced fire protection system in the engine room.

Daphne is more than a passage maker--it's a turnkey solution for the serious cruiser who dreams of exploring remote destinations with confidence at a fraction of the price with capital outlay and running costs. Designed and equipped to take on the open ocean, it's the perfect vessel for an owner ready to embrace life on the water and cover serious distances with ease. Currently located in Pittwater, this Nordhavn N43 is waiting for its next adventure.
