Najad 490 for sale with Boatmatch.com
Boatmatch are proud to be able to offer two Najad 490 yachts for sale. The newer Najad 490 offered was commissioned in Henan in April 2000. She has been little used since her launch, having seen light Northern-European summer use for four summers and dry stored every winter and for two summers – the last two years in Henan – with a no-expense-spared maintenance program (engine 600 hours, log 4000 M, 09/2007).
She was built and extensively fitted out by Najad yachts for comfortable trans-ocean sailing; much of her inventory is little used or unused. She will be of considerable interest to a new-boat buyer. The second Najad 490 'Altarial' is 490 No.6 (actually the second yacht built). Her hull was made in 1998 and she was fitted out and launched in time for the boat show season in summer 1999.
The owners bought her from Najad after the 1999 Southampton show, as the show boat she had a lot of extras. She was also used for Southampton Boat Show in 2000 and has remained with the same owners from new to date. The owners sailed her in the Caribbean and USA from 2001 until 2004 when they brought her back to the Mediterranean. She has been lovingly cared for and well maintained. She is in excellent condition for a 1999 yacht, Although original, the sails are cleaned and repaired every year.
Both boats have had their prices reduced recently and the owners are looking for offers, contact www.boatmatch.com for more details and pictures or call +44 1725 514466 and speak with Simon Walworth. Picture of 'Altarial' in the sun
