“Wasabi” is an Ed Monk design, 68’ Pilothouse Motoryacht custom built by Nordlund Boat Company in Tacoma, Washington. She features three staterooms with three heads and has accommodations for 8 people, a large fishing cockpit with walk around side decks and Portuguese Bridge and stand-up engine room and a heavy-duty anchoring system.
Those familiar with cruising the Pacific Northwest will know of the Nordlund Boat Company. Nordlund is a highly regarded, family owned and operated, custom yacht builder and has a history spanning over 55 years of building some of the finest yachts in the world, ranging in size from 61' to 114'. Originally built on the proven 61 foot hull, the first owner had Nordlund extend the cockpit 7 feet, which provided a significantly increased fishing and water sports area together with increased fuel capacity, while still keeping with the Ed Monk and Nordlund pedigree. Now with the second owner, “Wasabi" has seen continuous upgrades under both the original and current owner, starting with refresh of all major machinery, new electrical upgrades, and much more. All these features come together to offer a very solid, sea-kindly, capable and durable yacht, sure to bring many more years of comfortable cruising enjoyment. LLC titled. Shown by appointment.
