Introduction
Sea Trek is an ocean ready, full displacement trawler that can truly travel to almost any place you can imagine. The Nordhavn 40 design is the smallest passage maker built by PAE. A sistership completed a 26-week circumnavigation in 2001. The Nordhavn 40 platform is solid, stable, and capable — engineered to safely take you across the ocean or along the coast in an economical package that has no equal in this size and price range.
The current owners have cruised full time on Sea Trek for the past three years up and down the East Coast from Maine to Florida and The Bahamas. They have maintained Sea Trek in exceptional condition making significant upgrades to her electronics, power, mechanical systems, living conveniences, safety gear and dinghy.
Nordhavn 40 Model Background
The 40 is the sixth design in the Nordhavn series. She was conceived to create an entry level vessel that an adventurous couple could use to explore with an "out of the box" range of 3,000 miles. Most of the people who buy a Nordhavn 40 are owner operators, whether new or seasoned. They appreciate the generous interior accommodations (saloon and galley on the entry level, raised pilothouse and two staterooms with one head on the lower level) and seakindly ride through the water with home comforts and conveniences.
Sea Trek is a first generation (US built) Nordhavn 40 — hull 32 out of 44 produced in southern California by legendary cruising sailboat builder, Pacific Seacraft. When this California builder faltered at hull 44, PAE/Nordhavn shipped the tooling to the Nordhavn yard in China to continue production starting with hull 45 and differentiated the two versions in this series as Mark I US made, and Mark II China built.
The saloon is spacious because it is pushed out on both sides, with no wasted space filled with rarely used walking side decks. Sea Trek was ordered with the optional flybridge, which provides an excellent outdoor area above the pilothouse for taking command underway or relaxing when at rest.
Cockpit
The cockpit (aft deck) is sufficiently sized to provide an easy entry landing for gaining access to the interior. There is a molded in swim platform aft for getting in and out of the water or transitioning to your tender. There are two hull boarding doors, one aft from the swim platform and one on the starboard side for dock access. A hot and cold fresh water shower is installed for rinsing off. The large opening floor hatch provides access to the lazarette below. The boat deck extends partially over the cockpit.
- Two boarding doors — aft and to starboard
- Swim ladder for swim platform
- Two built in seats with cushions are aft, facing forward (port side doubles as propane locker)
- Hot and cold freshwater shower
- Aft CCTV camera (2020)
- Air vents for engine room
Lazarette
Located below the cockpit through the large hatch is the lazarette. The forward bulkhead has a hinged step where most of the house and start batteries are located. All five house batteries were replaced in 2019. The inverter is outboard to starboard, there is an electric bilge pump, water maker and steering. On the port side is the fresh water accumulator tank and hot water tank. An emergency tiller is fitted in the overhead.

Saloon
One unique feature on the Nordhavn 40 is the lack of walking side decks — this makes for a much wider saloon and through traffic is directed via the interior which is actually faster and safer. A Diamond SeaGlaze full height door (with dogs and gasketing) leads into the saloon which has an L-shaped Ultraleather settee to starboard and another built in settee to port. Both settees have storage underneath. There is an adjustable hi-low teak table which can be positioned in a variety of locations. The sole is carpeted. For entertainment, a flat screen television is mounted forward to starboard with a stereo locker.

Galley
Moving forward on the same level as the saloon connects you to the galley portside. The beautiful teak faced column that provides delivery of the main engine dry stack exhaust creates a natural divide while retaining an open-air feeling. The current owners upgraded the refrigerator freezer system to much more efficient Vitrifrigo stainless faced drawers (two sets, one in the galley and one outboard to starboard across from the galley). A new microwave oven with an exhaust fan has also been installed. This is a functional galley with Corian counters, teak lockers and drawers and two opening portlights outboard.

Pilothouse

There are two Dutch Doors outboard for easy outside deck access. The navigation equipment was upgraded in 2018/2019 and includes a full suite of Simrad electronics complete with touchscreen control. There is a stainless-steel wheel with a well laid out dash area. The electrical panel breaker is behind a clear door cabinet to starboard. The aft section has a watch berth and a large sofa settee fronted by a custom, adjustable teak table.

The upper bunk is fixed, the lower bunk can be pulled out to be made wider. There is good lighting overhead and by the bunks. Outboard are two portlights that can be opened for ventilation. Below the lower bunk you have access to the active fin stabilizer on the port side. Aft in the guest stateroom is the door entry to the engine room.

Engine Room
You enter the engine room through a door located aft in the guest stateroom (you can also enter through the sole, aft in the saloon). The maintenance strakes molded into the hull create additional headroom outboard of the main engine on both sides. Two fiberglass fuel tanks with perforated aluminum screens are outboard and each tank has its own sight glass. Both tanks feed a supply tank in the forward bilge with a water-in-fuel alarm and sump. The Lugger L668D main engine is keel cooled with a dry stack exhaust and mated to a Twin Disc 3.0:1 transmission. Diesel fuel filtration is accomplished by dual Racor 900 filters and a Racor 500 filter for the generator.
