NORSEBOAT 21.5

"After enjoying sailing, rowing and camp cruising with our NorseBoat 17.5 for a number of years, we are ready to move up to a larger boat. The concept for the NorseBoat 21.5 may be just what we are looking for.”

The NorseBoat 21.5

Sailing Cruiser

The new NorseBoat 21.5 Cruiser has distinctly NorseBoat lines and features, plus interior accommodations for two adults and two children, a self-draining cockpit, and a unique hull design.

    The sailplan is a high performance, easy to handle cutter rig with fully battened mainsail, signature curved gaff yard, pivoting carbon mast, self-tacking jib, and optional furling drifter/reacher headsail.

    Customers can choose the standard ballasted centerboard or optional low-profile fixed keel. The fixed keel option can temporarily replace the centerboard when sailing in deeper waters for the season, or keeping the boat at a dock or mooring. The NorseBoat 21.5 Cruiser is strong yet lightweight, has a seaworthy hull shape, shallow draft, some rowing capability, and is trailerable and able to be towed with a normal vehicle.

    The pre-production price is CN$29,995 plus trailer and options for the NorseBoat 21.5 Cabin version, and CN$24,995 plus trailer and options for the NorseBoat 21.5 Open version (no cabin).  Pricing & Features

"I’m very interested to learn more about the new NorseBoat 21.5, a boat that shares the same qualities I experienced with my NorseBoat 17.5...elegance, a blend of traditional and modern design, versatility and sparkling performance.  I look forward to seeing all that incorporated into a larger design.  The fleet of NorseBoats will then be complete!”
