Najad 440 CC

Broker Remarks

This boat was built originally for the wife of the owner of Najad in 2006, it therefore has some detailed finishing touches that other 440cc’s will not have. It has been meticulously maintained throughout her life and prior to 2018 sailed only in Swedish waters and enjoyed winters ashore inside under cover with full yard provided maintenance.

The current owner purchased the boat in Sweden and sailed it back to UK in 2018, carried out some upgrades and cruised in France, Channel Islands and the West Country, then deciding to cruise in the med carried out further upgrades. In 2022 sailed France Channel Islands and Northern Spain. A change in plans for the owner has resulted in this rare vessel coming to market in the best order now available to purchase.

Recent expenditure includes new rod rigging 2022, (£20k by Advanced Rigging Hamble), recent rig tune and rig service 2025 (Allspars, Plymouth), all electric furling main and Genoa, Andersen winches x 6 in total, 2 x two speed electric Andersen winches in cockpit in stainless steel, Sanders sails, Hydrovane, Generator, Water maker, washing machine, Fridge, separate Freezer. Eberspacher D4 deisel heating serviced 2024. Outlets in all cabins inc both heads. Bimini as new recently fitted, all canvas by Dolphin, (Oyster Yachts supplier), circa £8k spend. Last ashore for antifoul with full hull and super structure polish October 2025. Full list of work carried out in current ownership available on request. 

'Freedom' must be viewed to be fully appreciated and is an excellent example of this very capable blue water cruiser constructed by one of the worlds leading boat yards in high-quality cruising yacht construction. She won't be around for long and not one to be missed.
