Pre-Owned Trawlers
2008 N47   From the Builder 

From the Builder

Curiosity has been extremely well cared for, and is perhaps the finest example of the N47 on the water. This is one of the most versatile and most sought after trawlers on the market today. It is known as a “do anything” vessel with a cult following for the ruggedness and extreme ease of maintenance the N47 exhibits. As of June 1st, this is the only N47 available in the world.
Curiosity’s most recent owners completely upgraded the electronics with state-of-the-art Garmin Multi Function Displays that include radar, charting, bottom sounding, and complete control of the Garmin Auto Pilot. The vessel is also equipped with NEMA 2000 that is viewable on the Garmin System. It would be hard to imagine a better electronics package for a cruising boat of this nature.
Curiosity is fitted with the optional flybridge that incorporates full controls and navigational equipmen,t including bow thruster and windlass controls. The flybridge can comfortably seat ten and will accomodate nine for meals at its folding dining table. A full Bimini top with foldable radar arch and 600-pound dinghy davit round out this beautiful social area.
The galley in Curiosity is as good as it gets for any vessel under 60 feet. A brand-new full-size refrigerator, four burner electric cooktop and convection oven round out a galley that is very workable and adjacent to a large dinette that will seat six easily.
Moving forward from the galley to starboard is the guest or day head with spacious shower and Vacuflush toilet, vanity sink and medicine chest with mirror. The head incorporates a 12' stainless steel 12” opening port, which is one of ten on the boat.
Forward of the guest head is the master suite. A full-size standard Island queen berth is set on centerline, flanked by large storage areas that are a combination of hanging lockers and drawers. At the foot of the queen there are also four huge drawers for clothing storage. The master has its own head with full amenities including a lit make up vanity and a sit-at desk area.
Aft of the master to port is the guest stateroom. This cabin combines a comfortable bunk for two with plenty of storage space and a working desk/office area, which creates a great “get away” area.
The Master, Guest Stateroom, Dinette, Galley, and Guest head are all on the same level with no steps. A short five steps up from the lower living area is the saloon with the helm station, navigator's bench and large wrap-around settee with folding table, set opposing a starboard-side settee. Tasteful wood blinds over Bomar sliding windows make for an elegant and professional wheelhouse.
The engine room on the N47 is recognized as the best on any vessel of its size. It provides full standing headroom to facilitates complete 360-degree access around each engine. Curiosity is equipped with Yanmar 75hp engines that typically have a service life of over 10,000 hours. The Yanmars are swinging 24” counter rotating three bladed propellers. The boat is equipped with a top notch fuel polishing system and oil changing system that handles both propulsion engines and the 13kw genset.
The outside areas of the N47 are famous for their protected walkways and super-secure on-deck areas. Access to the dual anchor pulpit in the worst of conditions is confidence-inspiring and safe, thanks to the waist-height rails that wrap around the entire deck. The deck is designed to take any amount of water and quickly drain with no constraints.

​Curiosity is ready to head out today on any adventure you can imagine! She comes with a renewed factory hull warranty and full training on systems and handling for her adventurous next owners.
