Description

Boarding NORDIC STAR from the aft cockpit, guests are welcomed into a spacious and inviting area that flows seamlessly to the aft deck, which features two distinct seating and dining spaces ideal for entertaining.

From here, guests enter the bright and welcoming main-deck salon. Large windows provide abundant natural light, while satin-finished teak joinery and teak-and-holly soles create a warm, timeless ambiance. The salon is thoughtfully arranged with comfortable lounge seating aft and a formal dining area forward, offering a versatile space for both relaxation and entertaining.

Forward on the main deck, the well-appointed galley is equipped with stainless steel countertops, dual sinks, ample storage and quality appliances. Its location allows for efficient service, whether for private cruising or charter operations.

Guest accommodations are accessed via a companionway from the salon and are situated on the lower deck for added privacy. The full-beam master stateroom, located amidships, offers generous volume and features a king-size berth, built-in seating and extensive storage. The en-suite master head is finished with marble countertops and includes a separate enclosed stall shower.

Two additional guest staterooms are positioned to port and starboard, each offering twin berths and private en-suite heads with marble vanities and enclosed showers.

Crew accommodations are located forward and include a captain’s cabin, an additional crew stateroom and a crew mess/lounge with an extra berth, ensuring excellent separation between guest and crew areas.

NORDIC STAR’s layout is practical, comfortable and highly versatile, making her well suited for both private ownership and charter use. A recent paint job, along with her 2014–2015 refit, has refreshed the yacht’s exterior and modernized the interior while preserving her classic character.
