Does the N41 have "Position Hold" as a feature? That is a significantly helpful feature on the ICW and in the Canal System on the northern part of the Great Loop when waiting for bridge openings, waiting for locks to clear before entering, and maneuvering inside inside locks which can be complicated when occupied by numerous boats. Of course, "Position Hold" requires the addition of a stern thruster. At this price point and to truly obtain the status of an excellent boat, "Position Hold" and duel bow and stern thrusters should be standard features. These features equate to improved safety to the boat and its occupants and superior handling capability in confined and/or challenging areas on the water - including marinas.
I wonder why the teak needs repairs on a boat from 2011? Something doesn’t seem right and to replace all the headliners too makes me wonder if there’s been a problem with the way things were fitted out. I don’t think an engine of 160hp is that much for something off this size maybe 250hp would be better, I would also consider a water maker if you are running a washing machine and being away for quite some time. Normally there’s not any problems with a Nordhavn but I wonder if this one is the exception.
