Lord Nelson 41

Among the well respected cruising designs such as Hans Christian, Tayana, and Baba/Tashiba, the Lord Nelson 41 is regarded by many as the most rugged, with the most beautiful, classic lines.   Like the North Sea sailing ships of her heritage, she is built with ocean-crossing capabilities, engineered for reliability, built for seaworthiness, and designed with classic good looks.Hull #51 of maybe 60,Solanais equipped with a tall, double-spreader rig making for efficient sailing even in very light air. Note the Strong Track for the main sail.  Efficient full keel underbody with an oversized, hydro-dynamically balanced rudder provides the ultimate in stable downwind tracking and responsive “finger-tip” steering. Lord Nelson 41’s have the bow pulpit of dreams, especially if you want your children to be able to watch the dolphins play at the bow.Layout - anchor locker forward followed by the master stateroom which features a queen-sized berth and enclosed head with shower to port, and to starboard, a dressing seat, hanging locker and drawers. Next aft is the salon with a large U-shaped dinette to port and a settee berth to starboard. There is ample storage above, outboard and below on both sides.  The aft-facing nav station is to starboard with electrical panels and displays, and is followed by an enclosed guest cabin with a queen-sized berth, hanging locker, vanity and changing seat. To port of the companionway is a very functional and secure U-shaped galley for passage-making cooking.  Aft is access to a cozy sea-berth. Nine opening bronze ports, three deck hatches and four stainless dorade vents plus the companionway provide for the ultimate in ventilation and comfort.Solanasleeps 6 with her three-stateroom interior (two with genuine double-berths), an aft cabin single, and a comfortable salon settee with lee cloth.  Her spacious and rich interior establishes her as a true yacht with distinctive style and elegance.  Everyone is impressed with the gorgeous all-timber Burmese Teak interior.Previous owners purchased Solana in 2006. They sailed her to San Diego in 2008 where she was their winter home until 2014. The 2008 economic downturn and the violence in Mexico dissuaded them from venturing farther south. In 2015 Solana was trucked back home to Anacortes, WA.  Current 2015 owners moved aboard, and sailed locally.  Now with two children, and limited time, they have moved ashore, and someone is going to get a great deal on this classic strong boat.Come see this Lord Nelson 41 at Shilshole Bay Marina in Seattle.  She’s a yacht of unmistakable character, and a unique blend of classic charm, romance and the strength to take you far, safely and in comfort.  Note: discounted for fast sale, and bottom paint.Show More
