Island Greeter is an active and lightly used original owner Nordhavn 62 in exceptional condition.  Two years of planning and construction, getting all of the details right, merged into fifteen years of cruising, primarily during the spring and summer months up in the Pacific Northwest.  The owners also purchased and own the slip at Skyline marina in Anacortes – you can purchase a ready-to-go Nordhavn 62 and acquire the slip to give you a home base.

Hull number 34 of 39 built, she had the benefit of seeing the selections made by predecessor hulls which dramatically improved the overall package.   Wide body saloon for more interior space (with two larger windows, a nicer feel than the original three). Oval vs. round portlights. Custom fiberglass dry stack mast with antennas.  File drawers with metal glides. Stern bustle which adds waterline offshore and provides a convenient dinghy dock platform with the small generator inside.

Inside is gorgeous.  Gloss cherry woodwork, rich and exquisite.  The hallway forward connects to the engine room, owner stateroom, guest stateroom and spectacular VIP forward with an inviting island berth. Each stateroom has a convenient head and shower access. The pilothouse has a well-planned forward instrument dash, settee with table and the practical office with stool.

On deck she has a centerline hydraulic crane for launching two dinghies.  The upper aft deck is ideal for getting outside, out of the wind and relaxing with a mug of coffee or a glass of wine. Her machinery is dependable. Lugger main engine with dry stack exhaust, Lugger wing engine, two Northern Lights generators, ABT active fin stabilizers, hydraulic windlass and thrusters. Lifeline AGM batteries.

ACCOMMODATIONS and LAYOUT:

You can get all around the deck with side door hull to starboard and access from the stern bustle.  It is extremely easy to dock, you have control stations not only in the cockpit for backing into a slip, but also outboard port and starboard on the Portuguese bridge.

Aboard and inside Island Greeter you will find the luxury and craftsmanship that the Ta Shing yard in Taiwan is world famous for.  The saloon is spacious, with large outboard windows and gently transitions to the galley with the choice of going forward to the staterooms (and engine room access) or up top to the pilothouse.

The accommodations forward of the galley are comprised of the usual large owner stateroom aft with ensuite head and shower and then the port stateroom forward with ensuite head and shower, then a truly impressive and sought after forward VIP stateroom featuring a luxurious island berth.

This 62 has an impressive pilothouse with Stidd helm chair, great access and visibility for all electronics and a comfortable bench behind the helm for guests to gather underway.  The bridge also includes a desk with swing out chair.

There is a stainless stem guard on the bow at waterline to help protect the hull from flotsam. The foredeck features two fiberglass deck boxes, two RIB dinghies and a polished stainless-steel crane.  Dual anchors with appropriate ground tackle are in place.  There is a “midship” shore power connection station to starboard.

The cockpit has a home style propane barbeque and seating.  The stern bustle includes a Glendinning shore power retriever and inside houses a generator.

MAIN SALOON

Entering the saloon through a wide watertight door you are immediately struck by beauty, elegance and openness, this is an area that both flows and provides numerous comfortable seating arrangements.

The port side entrance is easy access (you could add a reclining chair, but they prefer the open space).  There is also an entertainment island and outboard a flat screen television on a concealed lift.   To starboard in the saloon is a beautiful dinette with teak table that has removable middle section.
