Overview
An outstanding example of the Najad 505 from 2008.
Judel/Vrolijk design with well proven & documented fast cruising capabilities.
Upgrades, including standing rigging, foresails, spray hood canvas and electronics suite plus twin pole system for double headsail downwind set up. She is ready for blue water adventures, with a powerful cutter rig, in-mast furling and powered sail controls for short handed sailing.
The generous, safe cockpit is equally suited to entertaining onboard – much larger than equivalent Oysters.
The immaculate interior has the preferred three cabin version, with an ensuite centreline double aft master cabin, linear galley, bunk room port forward, vee berth and forward heads. The legendary Najad build quality is evident the moment you step aboard and you are assured of outstanding sea keeping.
This yacht is shaft drive with bow and stern retractable thrusters, aircon and heating (suitable for high & low latitude sailing), davits, S/S anchor & chain, plus down wind cruising chute.
Please view the 360 degree tour on our web site.
We have high resolution pictures available also – please ask for a link.
Please call us for a full description of the exciting yacht package.
