 The Nordhavn 56 Motorsailer:
“First rate... solidly built... absolutely fit
- Ralph Naranjo
Plan to see the new Nordhavn 56 M/S in Dana Point, California Call to arrange a private showing.
Ralph Naranjo’s cruising and marine industry
experience has spanned decades and ranges from a
five-year family voyage around the world to man-
aging a full-service boatyard/marina. As the
Vanderstar Chair at the US Naval Academy, he
monitored the safety and seamanship of the USNA’s
sail training program. He is a past chairman of US
Sailing’s Safety at Sea Committee, and is

technical editor. Nordhavn asked Mr.
Naranjo to review the N56 M/S, prior to its debut
this summer:
short, there’s much to be said for a vessel
that can reach in a fair breeze, sip fuel
while motor sailing in lighter air, and yet
have the power and punch to churn to
windward when and if that type of passage
making becomes desirable.”
the seakindliness of a heavy displacement
motorsailer, and its penchant for caring for
the crew. The Nordhavn 56M/S has taken
that concept one step further by merging
these attributes with the best technology
available today, and building an ocean voy-
aging motorsailer that’s absolutely fit for
the task at hand.”
Functional Ruggedness
“Shunning the growing trend to keep sail-
boats as light as possible, and therefore use
less material and less expensive equipment,
the new Nordhavn 56 M/S takes a different
tack,” says Mr. Naranjo. “Its engineering
and construction are all about a functional
ruggedness that only comes with a solidly
built boat.”
The Expert’s Full Report
A boat that stands up to the scrutiny of
experts will, no doubt, stand up to the
demands of passagemaking voyagers. For

M/S, please visit

“The Nordhavn 56 Motorsailer is absolutely
fit for off-the-beaten-path cruising,” states
Mr. Naranjo. “It is a view of transoceanic
voyaging that embraces technology along
with the wisdom of sea tested tradition.”
Equipped for Confidence
First rate is the only way to summarize the
lengthy list of equipment chosen to outfit
the Nordhavn 56M/S, Mr. Naranjo points
out. “But equally as important as what
gear has been chosen is the way in which it
has been installed. Finally, it’s hard to beat
A Closer Look
“A close look at the plans and engineering
behind the new Nordhavn 56 M/S spells out
how a voyager should be put together and
what it takes to make a motorsailer fit for
far away voyages,” says Mr. Naranjo. “In
