She’s at home crossing blue waters, cruising coastal towns, or quietly hanging on a mooring ball or at anchor. The Nordhavn 55 design is one of the most popular trawlers in the world and What’s Next (which is the owners’ approach to life) is an exceptional version. Hull number 40 is uniquely configured with a larger VIP guest stateroom, complete with an expanded berth, settee, and an oversized shower for your guests in their ensuite head. The owner’s stateroom is midships with a queen-sized walk around berth, double hanging lockers, and large port lights that bring in plenty of natural light. The ensuite head has an extra-large shower with granite. Powered by a 330 HP John Deere main with keel cooler and dry stack exhaust – a propulsion package that Nordhavn has refined to cross oceans, she employs ABT active fin stabilizers to keep the crew comfortable on passage. Her Furuno TimeZero navigation package was a part of a $120,000 retrofit in 2024 that will provide even the most discerning captain with a plethora of data at their touch screen fingertips. Air conditioning is designed for keeping her cool in tropical climates whether underway or at rest. The Northern Lights 20 kW generator is as dependable as they come. For back up propulsion she has a Lugger wing engine. For docking she has a starboard control station at the Portuguese bridge and another in the aft cockpit to go with Side Power electric bow and stern thrusters with a remote. Anchoring is first class with a stainless-steel Ultra anchor controlled by a Maxwell 3500 windlass. There is a flopper stopper pole mounted to port for smoothing out rolly anchorages. For in-cove transportation she has a 2023 Highfield rigid inflatable with a console and a 60 HP Yamaha outboard. There is also a smaller shore/beach launch FRiB brand foldable hard bottom dinghy, two Hobie Mirage pedal-drive kayaks with Biminis and mounting bracket, and a Steelhead 1500 crane for placing your toys efficiently into the water. From her gray hull color to her interior designer touches, What’s Next is a classy Nordhavn 55 that was retrofitted in 2021 and spruced up again in 2025.
