New Model: Nordhavn 68 FPH

With plenty of living room, a long list of comfort and convenience features and the range and size to cross oceans, the Nordhavn 64/68 series has proven a popular trawler size, bridging the gap between the 55 and the larger 76. Built on the same extended hull as the aft pilothouse Nordhavn 68, the new FPH forward pilothouse version retains the same interior layout as the similar looking but smaller 64, but adds four feet of length to the aft cockpit, increasing the outdoor living and playing space to 191 square feet. An additional benefit one that’s always appreciated, is also a larger lazarette. Compared to the Nordhavn 64, the 68 forward pilothouse enjoys the advantage of a slight increase in cruising efficiency because of its longer waterline. Compared with the 68 aft pilothouse sibling, the forward pilothouse version has a slightly larger fuel capacity of plus 99 litres to the original version.
