2011 North Pacific 43' Pilothouse, Positive Vibration
A beautiful and well equipped, late model, North Pacific 43' Pilothouse. With a spacious salon/galley and pilothouse and two-generous staterooms (guest room with popular bunk layout), the NP43 is a great choice for long range adventure like the Great Loop, East Coast cruising or the Bahamas.
With its solid hull, heavy duty stainless steel fittings, and its spacious, beautifully hand crafted teak interior, the North Pacific 43' Pilothouse is a well-built yacht suitable for comfortable long-range travel even in miserable weather conditions. Not only does the North Pacific 43 offer excellent value, but also good design. We spent 3 years and countless hours ensuring that all equipment was easily accessible and that the useful living and storage areas were maximized on this yacht, from its spacious salon to its extensive upper deck, while never neglecting the minor details that make the difference.The North Pacific 43' can be confidently piloted with an unobstructed view over the high prow from the raised pilothouse, or from the flybridge The NP43 cruises comfortably at 8- 10 knots, produced by the yacht's single 230 hp Cummins diesel engine (twin available). In striving to provide the most to boaters for their dollar, the North Pacific 43 comes fully equipped with a generator, bow thruster, diesel forced air heat, 3000W inverter/charger, Vacuflush toilet, windlass and anchor package, fresh/sea water wash down, and much more (see Specifications). The yacht is very well equipped leaving very few additions which can often lead to dissatisfaction. In all aspects this yacht was designed to satisfy even the most demanding boaters, and is something all prospective yacht owners must see.
At the stern of the yacht there is a fully undercover cockpit approximately 11? X 5?. Access to it is through the transom door from the large integrated swim platform, from the salon through the FRP door or down the ladder from the fly bridge. The cockpit provides a good area for storage, fishing or just sitting and enjoying a nice evening.
Guest Stateroom:On the port side is a spacious guest stateroom with a comfortable bed and two large drawers underneath. The bed is furnished with a 5" fabric covered foam mattresses and two reading lights. A hanging locker on the forward wall and two bookshelves as well as two drawers under the bed provide storage. A vanity mirror with drawers underneath is standard (a cabinet is available instead of the mirror). The guest stateroom can also be furnished with two bunks or made into an office.
Forward Accommodation:Down the stairs at the forward most part of the salon is a hall and access to the forward accommodations, which are designed to provide maximum space and comfort for guests and owners alike. The hall floor is composed of three removable hatches that allow for access to the 50GAL fiberglass holding tank, bilge pump, macerator pump, shower sump pump, sea/fresh water wash down pump and all of the pipes and hoses running fore and aft.
The hull is solid fiberglass at least 8.5mm (just over 1/3") on the upper sides and between 11.5mm (just over 3/7") to 18.5mm (just over /7") on the bottom and lower sides. There is no coring. A vinylester resin, as opposed to a cheaper polyester resin, is used on the outer layers of the hull. This resin helps to reduce the chance that blisters will form. Below the waterline is an epoxy barrier making blistering nearly impossible. Reinforcement is added with a molded FRP grid bonded throughout the hull bottom. Foam filled stringers, foam filled beams and extra support every 12 inches strengthen the heavy semi-displacement hull.
The superstructure is made of fiberglass with structural coring as required (Nida coring on the decks). The hull and superstructure are formed in two pieces and are joined with epoxy and bolted through, forming a strong bond that lasts. The factory uses a time consuming, hand-laid method of forming all the fiberglass that results in a strong, quality finished product that lasts.
From the beginning of the North Pacific 43? project it was emphasized how important it is to have a spacious salon, as so much time is spent there and we worked hard to achieve this. By making the walkway to the bow from the stern above the salon we were able to build the salon walls nearly to the edge of the hull, maximizing the useful living space, while not loosing the ability to get around the boat. The salon is very open with no hanging cabinets dividing the galley, and most importantly, the cook from the rest of the salon. Nine windows give lots of light and allow for a nice panoramic view. The salon is almost 11' long and 11'8" wide with a ceiling height of 6'5" making it equivalent to many 55' yachts.
On the starboard side there is a comfortable 8' long and 36" wide, "L" shaped settee. In seconds this settee is easily converted into a comfortable bed with a width of 47". There is storage space underneath the entire length of the settee, as well as a cabinet at the forward end for extra storage that also makes an ideal place to install an entertainment system. Across from the settee is a comfortable H shaped dinette. Together the dinette and settee provide a large amount of relaxation space in close proximity for entertaining guests, or simply enjoying a movie. The salon is well-lit with ample halogen lighting and reading lights in the corners. The light on the teak gives the salon a very warm, dry and comfortable feeling.
Well-lit Corian (or equivalent) countertops with a raised edges surround the galley, forward of the dinette. There is a large amount of counter space for food preparation. A single stainless steel sink, adequate to fit a large pot, with a single handle American Standard faucet and pullout spout makes clean up easy. A Princess electric stove is standard equipment on the North Pacific 43; however, a gas stove is also available. With 3 burners and an oven, the stove provides a good cooking surface, and there is still sufficient room for many other appliances in the galley. There are four drawers, one large cabinet with two adjustable shelves, another large cabinet under the sink with two fixed shelves and a small cabinet above the stove for storing spices.
Engine recently received a new water pump.
