Now with an additional 30K reduction in price, this fine Blue Water boat is an amazing bargain. While bargains are truely rare in boat buying, we beleive this is one to own. Don’t mess around now. Make your good offer and you will not be disappointed in this vessel. She is an extremely comfortable blue water boat and liveaboard home. She will serve you well! The true definition of a world cruiser is many things to many sailors, all driven by just two things; beauty in the eye of the beholder, and money. I was extremely fortunate and courageous to invest back in the mid 1980?s, all of my resources, to buy the ultimate, most luxurious, best built, and best designed world cruiser to take my family sailing. I chose the Bob Perry designed, Ta Shing-built, Center Cockpit Norseman 447. I remember the first day that I took delivery of her. She was berthed in the Shilshole Bay Marina outside of Seattle, in the Pacific Northwest. From the first day, to the last, she will always be my true love. She was a comfortable and safe home, a home to be proud of. She was a powerful, swift, and safe world cruiser. She was easy to sail, for she enjoyed stretching her legs and always reaching for the next horizon with authority and confidence. The boat was a yacht, a beautiful yacht, a properly designed yacht, drawn by my good friend Bob Perry, who is talented enough to blend perfectly with the Builder?s skill, to create a wonderful sailing yacht. Just look at today?s so called sisterships, the Taswell. Where do you think that the ideas of design came from, for the similarities are obvious. The Norseman 447 sails wonderfully, it is beautiful at every angle, and it is gorgeous inside and out. I love these boats. Now to our very special offering. This Norseman 447 is as good as it gets, for there is none finer anywhere, even my old ?Solstice? isn’t as nice. We know ?Shakti? very, very well. We sold her to the current owners a few years ago. These are really, really special people. He was a commercial fisherman in the North Atlantic for 30 years and she was a willing adventurer. Neither were sailors yet and they boat knew they needed a really strong and well built, easily sailed boat that would keep them safe and sound. They’d be leaving New England later in the season and heading North earlier, so they really wanted to be sure they found a really capable ocean going boat. Plus they are both tall people (He is 6’4″ tall) so the wanted space to live aboard in comfort. They searched for a year before we met them. We knew there was one boat for them! Shakti! They bought her and they’ve been living aboard in the Islands and taking people day sailing. They’ve also sailed all around the Caribbean and had a great time. Her previous owner took eight years to circumnavigate. This is the kind of boat you want as she’s been continuously loved, used, cared for, upgraded, and maintained. This makes her the kind of boat where can truly love and trust. She’s in the Caribbean ready for you to sail away now! Her systems have been tested, upgraded and meticulously maintained. She is set up for someone desiring total independence to cruise in safety and style. She has multiple alternative energy systems, she makes her own water, and she carries the best equipment, all having evolved through trial and error. She has the only US Coast Guard approved and proven storm management system, th (Jordan Series Drogue). She can handle the most rugged conditions in safety and comfort. She is fast! (Her 17-day transatlantic voyage, with some 180+ days is impressive.) And, she’ll turn heads wherever she drops her hook. Shakti is more than all that with some additional features you will not find on other Norseman. For example, her custom swim step provides convenience in dinghy boarding plus and added safety if you ever need to board in a sea. Her design is for the discernin
