One of Bob Perry’s best yacht designs, the Norseman 447 incorporates a fine bow with a broad powerful stern to create an easily driven hull form that will stand up to sudden increases in wind speed by accelerating rather than healing. The Norseman Boats 447 has ballast to displacement ratio of 44% and a sail area of 937 square feet combined with a modern underbody (long chord fin keel and a full skeg hung rudder).

The Norseman 447 ‘s were built in the Ta Shing yard, the finest boat building facility in Taiwan renowned for their skilled craftsmen and strict quality control. The construction of these yachts is unparalleled; they are known for their robust fiberglass construction, fine teak joinery and for fitting only the best hardware available

The interior plan is well thought out for both offshore work and comfortable harbor living especially the center cockpit version which has a bright airy tri-cabin 2-head layout that offers a centerline berth in the owner’s stateroom and full headroom throughout (6’4″+). The interior joinery is beautifully executed in solid teak with elegant flush cabinet design and satin varnish finishes. S/V Osprey is as fine an example of the Norseman 447 as you will find anywhere on the brokerage market.

Norseman 447 Center Cockpit Boats has enjoyed regular and routine maintenance as well as continual upgrading by her present owner. Recent upgrades include a Vetus bow thruster, a Selden single line reefing boom, a new full battened main, a custom hard dodger, a new Sea Frost refrigeration system, renewed standing rigging, and only 1400 engine hours. Osprey is priced to sell quickly at $199,000 and presents an excellent value. She is currently moored in Seattle so give us a call today for a showing appointment.
