Introduction
Partida defines the classic Nordhavn 46 that has become a true modern-day trawler legend. She is hull 25 (out of 82) and has been continually cruised and optimized by a series of active owners. Partida is a proven long-range cruiser, having crossed the Pacific twice — to New Zealand and then back to California.
Partida is configured with the "offshore" layout design — Plan A — featuring the owner stateroom aft. The amidships owner arrangement is more comfortable for sleeping underway and is conveniently accessed from the saloon level via a step-down stairwell. The guest stateroom forward features a double berth to port with twin bunks to starboard. There are two heads with showers. The interior has a warm teak wood finish (gloss varnish highlights on most of the trim) offset with white laminate.
Partida was originally delivered to Japan and then resold and repositioned to the US west coast, where she immediately received a series of major upgrades including the installation of active fin stabilizers. The second owners primarily cruised her in Mexico, the third owners sailed across the Pacific to New Zealand and back twice, and the current owners have enjoyed traveling between California and Mexico. Partida has been lovingly cared for and remains one of the most beautifully maintained trawler yachts JMYS has had the privilege to represent.
Accommodations and Layout
Entering the saloon through the cockpit sliding door you arrive in a very welcoming entry. A custom dinette settee is to port for meals, and two comfortable chairs with an ottoman and teak stand are aligned on the starboard side for reading and relaxing. The galley counter offsets the cooking area from the saloon, and makes a wonderful working kitchen underway with its U-shaped layout. Steps at the starboard forward end of the saloon lead up to the pilothouse, and a separate set of steps just off the galley leads directly down to the owner stateroom.
Going down the steps from the galley to the owner stateroom, you have a large island berth athwartships to port, with the ensuite head and shower to starboard. The forward guest stateroom is designed to sleep up to four, with a separate head and shower forward (the chain locker is accessed from the forward head). You enter the engine room from the owner stateroom shower on the starboard side, or through floor hatches in the main saloon. On deck there is a hull side boarding door to starboard and a built-in swim platform aft; the cockpit can be enclosed in clear Isinglass. The boat deck is accessed from the port side of the pilothouse and the tender is managed by a crane.
