I was in Seattle last fall kicking around Lake Union went aboard a Nordic tug 49 that was for sale.
Nordic Tug 49 - Nordic Tugs
Wow excellent workmanship absolutely gorgeous boat. Looks very livable and just made sense in all the features. The helm very sensible and well laid out. The used ones are not much more than ocean front condos.
I could spend some time on one of these it looked like the perfect combo for Northwestern cruising & exploring
What are the pros and cons to this style of boat ? How are Nordic Tugs ranked among other boats in the 40-50 foot class.
Are there better manufactures?
I know they are slow and that's fine. I would love to hear about them from someone that knows.
