2017 Nordic Tug 40

The 2017 Nordic Tug 40 is a 43-foot fiberglass motor yacht built around a semi-displacement hull designed for extended coastal and Pacific Northwest cruising. Powered by twin Volvo Penta D6-370 diesel engines producing 740 horsepower combined, she cruises efficiently at 8 to 13 knots with a top speed in the mid-teens. The yacht features variable-speed bow and stern thrusters, a diesel hydronic heating system, and a comprehensive Garmin navigation suite with dual 16-inch displays, radar, and autopilot.

The interior layout includes two cabins and one head, organized around a practical pilothouse configuration that maximizes the yacht's 13-foot beam. Notable systems include a MasterVolt 2500-watt inverter and charger, house and thruster battery banks upgraded in 2023, and a Northern Lights generator running low hours. Additional equipment comprises a Vitrifrigo stainless steel drawer freezer, Starlink satellite internet, and an Achilles 310AL aluminum RIB tender with 15-horsepower Honda outboard launched via manual Olsson davit.

The yacht carries approximately 600 engine hours and reflects consistent maintenance and care. The hull and superstructure received a ceramic coating in fall 2025. She was sheltered under cover from new until fall 2025, minimizing weather exposure throughout her ownership history.
