Doesn't matter where you are in the world, buying a Najad is ALWAYS the correct move.

Congrat . She looks nice .

Bountiful woodwork on these yachts & Sail well

Lovely boat, and I especially like the deep cockpit and flat deck. This boat looks perfect for solo sailing.

A beautiful Swedish built boat. I hope you get a chance to sail Sweden. My wife and I spent 2018 / 2019 sailing the West & East coasts of Sweden in our HR. The sailing areas are magnificent and the people were very nice. Going back in June 24' and can't wait. Love the boat and think you made a good choice.

Congrats! Beautiful boat. I bought a Najad 360 back in September. It's currently in Greece for a refit. Looking forward to following your future adventures and projects. I have the same problem with the second boat on the West Coast. Hah. Fair winds.

We'll be doing some refitting during this Winter and will be posting updates in the Spring.

Hint when buying small exposed things like paddle wheel always get two because you are bound to need one

Not sure about your plans, but I’d like to offer to help crew it back stateside from the canaries. I’d pay my way. - fellow Westsail owner

Thanks for the offer, we've had several people say they would like to crew to the Carribean! We have not made any decisions on where we will take the boat. Maybe to the MED, maybe spend a year cruising the Canary Islands, maybe to the Carribean. I'll put you on the list for if we decide to head West.

I do not think you can go wrong with any of those plans! Would be glad to help out if the time comes. Thanks for the consideration. As I've commented before, I am copying Starwhite's companionway hatch design. More light!@@Westsail28

Congratulations on the Najad! -- QUESTION -- We were just watching a woman named Socrates from Victoria BC who did a circumnavigation on one of those. Looks great! Kinda gives off a Hallberg Rassy vibe and we love those ones. Have you seen this one called "Victory too 400" on youtube? Looks so awesome and for some reason it has a blue stripe which he must have done custom. Just stunning older sailboat but looks perfect.

I understand that Dark Red is Najad's company color, but they will make boats with other colors.

@@Westsail28 ..interesting.. I had initially thought tha the had the stripe repainted, Looks great especially with that whitish teak color. Just so nice all together.

Nice boat! I’m currently looking for a 391 or/and mk2 just to get the sugar scoop at the stern. I’d be interested in getting your views on that… Was easy dingy access a big concern of yours? Happy sailing! /peter

@Westsail28

Thank you for your question. With the high freeboard of this boat, dinghy and dock access was a concern for us. I am VERY pleased that she has both a S/S stern platform and a S/S bowsprit with boarding ladders on each. I prefer a S/S stern platform over a sugar scoop as it offers more robust protection than fiberglass and gelcoat when stern tied to quays and docks. The stern platform also protects our Hydrovane from dinghy and docking damage.

@@Westsail28 Thx! Good points of view. I guess it’s always a compromise whatever you choose. 🤨 Enjoy your beautiful boat and best wishes from Sweden where these boats are actually made!

That is a great boat, does this mean you have a boat for sale?

For now we have a fleet. We sail Starwhite locally and keep Albatross moored in the Canary Islands.
