Broker's Comments

The Najad 460 is a beautifully crafted yacht, built by the renowned Najad yard in Sweden and designed by Judel/Vrolijk & Co. This exclusive and solid vessel is perfect for ocean sailing, yet easy to handle for coastal cruising as well. The center cockpit is equipped with a sturdy fixed windscreen and a sprayhood, providing great protection from cold, windy, and rainy weather. All sail handling can be done from this central location. The wide side decks and numerous solid grab rails ensure that the crew can move around the deck with ease and confidence. The teak deck not only adds to the yacht’s aesthetic appeal but also provides excellent anti-slip functionality and extra insulation.

Najad 460, NAJAMBO was launched in 2001 and was purchased by its current second owner in 2003. NAJAMBO offers a comfortable two-cabin layout, with an aft owner’s cabin featuring a wide double berth in the center, an ensuite head/shower, and ample storage space for long-term liveaboard. The large forward guest cabin also boasts a double berth, ensuite head/shower, and plenty of storage in cupboards and wardrobes. The sea-going galley is located directly to starboard of the entrance, while the port side houses a spacious navigation area that also can work as an office. Behind the navigation area, there is a storage space that can be transformed into a pilot berth by folding the backrest of the navigation seat. The saloon comprises two sofas, a solid table, and plenty of cupboards and bookshelves.
