Devin Zwick has been assisting my wife and I with a purchase of a 35 nordhavn. I know this is the smallest in your fleet but Devin has made us feel like we are buying the largest!  Who ever writes his performance review (if you have these) should know what a valuable asset you have… Read more “I wanted to take a few minutes to recognize one of your sales personal…”

I wanted to write and take a moment to share my thoughts and thank you. Feel free to publish, use or do whatever you wish with the below 🙂 Also ALWAYS open to being a reference – not that you or Nordhavn would need one. Nordhavn has always been known as a premier brand for… Read more “Hi James”

Please allow me this opportunity to congratulate you on having Mr. Devin Zwick as part of your enterprise! What

We wanted to let you all know that we visited the West Palm Beach Boat Show at the end of March and visited your yacht.   We were warmly welcomed aboardby one of your crew, Captain Paul Hutton.  He was a fabulous spokesman for your company and for your yachts.  First and foremost, he made us… Read more “Hello: We wanted to let you all know that we visited the West Palm Beach Boat Show at the end of March and visited your yacht.”

Do these two seemingly incongruous words go together? I think they do. Years ago, when all you had was the phonebook, all the businesses wanted to be first. AAA Plumbing was always top of the list. Now we have Google, Bing, Yahoo and Safari. The new technology is great but you have to buy a… Read more “I can’t say enough great things about Devin”

After looking at several other yachts, the timing, my personal needs and my expectation of quality led me to Nordhavn and broker Dave Balfour.

Unless a broker is with Nordhavn, he won’t have the knowledge necessary to give a new owner the proper training these kinds of boats require. This is also very important for the seller. Nordhavn Brokers can articulate how these boats are built in terms of engineering and construction as well as the quality of the… Read more “Nordhavn Brokers can articulate how these boats are built in terms of engineering and construction”

We are newbies to Nordhavn having purchased our N40 in February 2010. We were at Dana Point on vacation (we live in Florida) and we met Larry Gieselman. When he learned what we wanted and what our financial status was he put us in a gorgeous 2002 Nordhavn 40. We could not be… Read more “We could not be happier and we highly recommend Larry.”

Just thought I might echo Jay’s comments. I am in a smilar situation to him and recently went to the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show. While there I met Peter Devers from the Australasin PAE office.
