Overview
Nordhavn Europe would like to reintroduce you to ‘AURA’ N68 Hull 21. She really is a fabulous example of a Forward Pilothouse version of the N68 Model from 2011. She has spent most of her time on the East Coast of the Mediterranean and is currently lying in the beautiful marina of Izola in the South/Western corner of Slovenia. Conveniently situated close to the border of Italy with the city of Trieste less than an hours drive away. She was built for her current owner who has lavished care and attention on her. Her condition is simply outstanding and without a doubt one of the best presented boats on the market. She has an envious specification and will offer her new owner the opportunity to cruise from day one of purchase. If you are in the market for a perfectly maintained and loved vessel to take you anywhere you chose in safety, comfort and style, we cannot recommend “Aura” highly enough.
