Nordhavn owners share their on-board holiday plans

Nordhavn owners share their on-board holiday plans

If there’s one thing Nordhavn owners have made clear around this time of year, it’s that there’s no place like your boat for the holidays. Somehow spending time with family around the holiday table is all the more appealing (or palatable?) when you’re on a Nordhavn anchored in some fabulous location. We caught up with a few owners who will indeed be spending the holidays making merry on their Nordhavn and asked them how and where they’ll be celebrating this year.
 
Thach Pham
N6215 Emmanou
 
Greetings from Didim, Turkey.  Emmanou has been in Turkey since September 2021 and we are enjoying cruising Southern Turkey.  D-Marin marina in Didim offers good protection from the Winter and all four of our kids as well as two nieces are descending on us for Christmas/New Year which finally gave us an excuse to string up the lights we have been carrying on board all this time.  Last week we drove down to Kas and checked in on Alec, Laurie and Jack on N64 Gratitude.  They had their Christmas decorations out and we delivered a mixer for Jack’s Christmas cookies.
Eric Patterson and Lynn Coy
N6081 Lyra
 
We’re currently in Ixtapa, MX and will be celebrating alone, hopefully! (LOL!) We have had guests the last 3 months.  But we want to spend the holidays lying in bed with no boat work and watch dumb movies. Our goal is to be in Chiapa, MX by February.
Mary and Bryan Scheible
N6310 Martini
 

We are currently sitting in Costa Baja marina, La Paz.  Our son and girlfriend are joining us for the holiday when we’ll take Martini to Bahia San Gabriel and Isla San Francisco for Christmas. 

Jim Mincher
N4031 Nomad
 

We have taken our time coming down from North Carolina and now are in Florida looking for proper weather to cross the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas. Where we end up doesn’t really matter. We are just hoping to spend Christmas in the crystal clear water of the islands.

Carol Salazar
N3520 Moondance
 
For the boat that has everything… we’re giving all the presents to Moondance this year! A little Garmin, a little paint, some stern thrusters as a stocking stuffer. We’ll be decking the hull with bright underwater lights and shiny ornaments on the boat deck that turn sunlight into energy. 
 
As for us, we will spend time dancing in the cockpit, hiding candy canes for our grandkids to find and sipping cocoa while watching the beautiful winter sunsets in Florida.  
Murray Birch
N6303 Opereta De
 
Not sure about our plans for this year yet but here is how we spent last year. It took 3 kettles of boiling water to untie the frozen lines when we left Vancouver for Silva Bay on Christmas Day. Here is hoping for a warmer Christmas this year.*
 
*note: Murray later wrote back to say he was in Calgary. Not warmer, unfortunately!
 
Tom and Jan Newman
N4116 Meraki  
 
Our three children and two of their partners will be joining us for the week of Christmas-New Years.  Three of the five are arriving early and will overnight with us aboard Meraki in Athens before cruising together to Poros where we have an Airbnb for the week for the five of them.  We plan to take day excursions (all 7 of us) on Meraki during that week, and we are excited that one of our daughters has extended her stay and will stay aboard with us through the first week of January.*
 
*note: read more about the Newmans adventure on board Meraki
 
No matter where you plan to celebrate this year – on a Nordhavn or not – we hope you have a joyous holiday season and healthy and prosperous New Year. We at Pacific Asian Enterprises would like to thank all of those who support us – owners and past owners, future buyers and dreamers, our vendors, factory partners and their staffs, our associates and exceptional team of employees – for making 2022 another successful year.
