Just wrapped up one of the most satisfying deals of my career. 

We’ve completed the sea trial and officially closed on the Nordhavn 56 Motor Sailer — a boat I originally sold out of Mexico back in 2017, which sailed it back to New Zealand and now, almost a decade later, I’ve had the privilege of selling it to a new owner here in New Zealand. 

What made this one special wasn’t just the boat. 
It was the people. 

Both the buyer and the seller were absolute pleasures to work with — respectful, prepared, and genuinely invested in making the process as smooth as possible. When everyone shows up with that level of integrity, the whole journey becomes something to celebrate. 

Congratulations to both parties.
