Nordhavn 60 Klondike

Twin Engine | Ocean-Capable | Proven Passagemaker

There are certain yachts that simply invite you to go - quietly confident, purpose-built, and ready to carry you far beyond the horizon. “KLONDIKE” is one of those yachts.

Representing the very essence of what Nordhavn was built upon, this 60 embodies the spirit of true long-range cruising. Whether it’s a calm summer morning slipping out of Anacortes toward the San Juans, a crossing to Alaska with friends and family aboard, or the kind of offshore passage most only dream about, “KLONDIKE” offers the capability, and more importantly, the confidence, to make those journeys a reality.

Her twin-engine configuration speaks to thoughtful redundancy and control, while her 3,000-nautical-mile range opens the door to destinations well beyond the typical cruising grounds. She is equally at home tied stern-to in a quiet harbor or pushing steadily through open water, stabilized and sure-footed, with the reassuring feel that has made Nordhavn synonymous with passagemaking.

Step inside, and the atmosphere is unmistakably Nordhavn - warm teak joinery, practical elegance, and a layout designed for living aboard, not just visiting. The forward guest stateroom features a centerline island berth, offering a level of comfort rarely found in this class, while the full-beam owner’s suite aft provides a private retreat after a day underway.

“KLONDIKE” is not just a yacht - it is a platform for experiences. Early mornings underway with coffee in the pilothouse, evenings on the hook in remote anchorages, and the quiet satisfaction of knowing you can go farther, stay longer, and travel safer.

For those who have been waiting for the right Nordhavn to begin, or continue, their cruising story, “KLONDIKE” represents an exceptional opportunity.
