Blue Heron 34' Nordic Tugs 2015

Quality Over Quantity ~ Nordic Tugs

Built with Quality in every part

Some 1,200 to 1,500 parts go into each Nordic Tug, and each part is carefully chosen for its durability, performance and

aesthetics.

We use only multidirectional stitch mat fiberglass cloth and a special vinylester resin for added strength, durability and

resistance to osmotic blistering. Stainless steel reinforces critical areas such as the shoe and rudder support on the keel.

The hull and deck joint as well as the bond of all major laminated components is fiberglass reinforced for maximum

strength. Wires and cables are marine grade tinned-copper for a lifetime of trouble-free operation. Finishing materials like

solid hard woods, hand-picked to match grain, add elegance to the interior.

From soles to salon roof, Nordic Tugs are built for years of reliable service so you and your family can go where you

want, when you want, and know that your boat is ready and waiting for the next journey.

Built for comfortable cruising

Designing the hull for a cruiser or trawler is a delicate balancing act. You want a design that offers stability both for

comfort and safety, adequate speed so you can get to your destination and have time to enjoy it. Add fuel efficiency into

the perfect cruising formula so you can explore without worrying about the next fuel stop.

At Nordic Tugs, we have met this challenge with our unique semi-displacement hull, designed to meet the demands of

serious inland and coastal cruising. At low speed, it conserves fuel and reduces roll. At high speed, it rises up to reduce

drag. A versatility that neither a full displacement nor planing hull can match.

The unprecedented structural integrity and reliability of our hulls allows us to provide our customers with a 10-year

warranty against both structural failure.

Built for Confidence at Sea

Every handcrafted Nordic Tugs boat begins with thoughtful design, from fiberglass components engineered for added

strength and safety to a spacious engine room with systems that are easy to access and clearly labeled. We understand

that quiet operation and freedom from vibration is important to you. Noise reduction is designed from the keel up and is

never an afterthought.

Nordic Tugs are designed by top marine naval architects. Then our highly trained lamination specialists, experienced

carpenters and skilled mechanics take that design and execute it with precision and artistry, producing a boat that

exceeds all expectations for quality.

At the dock or offshore, you will notice the skill that is applied in the assembly of every component of your Nordic Tugs

trawler. Confidence comes naturally when cruising in a state of the art vessel.

Built with Pride

At Nordic Tugs, the emphasis is always on quality over quantity. Each vessel is inspected at every stage to ensure it

meets our stringent requirements for performance, durability, comfort, silent operation and fuel efficiency. Over 120

components and processes are monitored on the hull and deck before the two parts are ever bonded together, and this is

only the beginning of Nordic Tugs’ quality assurance.

Our vacuum-infusion process creates parts with a precisely controlled amount of resin for exact duplicates in weight,

strength and density. Finishing work is equally meticulous, from the hand-picked hard woods to the wiring harness, called

by one reviewer “a textbook example of how to do it right.”

Only after the entire boat has been checked and all systems have been run-up at the factory does it have a chance to

prove itself at sea. A Nordic Tugs’ test crew puts every boat through an extensive protocol of tests and maneuvers in

multiple sea conditions to ensure the highest quality standards before it is returned to the plant and prepared for delivery.

During our day-long sea trials, we put the boat through its paces — cruising at various speeds, executing quick turns and

making sudden accelerations and decelerations. Armed with testing equipment from decibel and infrared meters to 4

anemometers, our knowledgeable sea trial team ensures that all systems are operating correctly and makes minute

adjustments to ensure that the boat you receive is turnkey and ready for cruising.

It is the kind of quality you rarely find in production boats — a quality we confidently back with a full 10-year hull warranty.

Built for life’s adventure

To understand Nordic Tugs trawlers, a good place to start is with our owners who are experienced mariners. Most

Nordic Tug owners have already owned a sailboat and or even a powerboat, but all owners have a clear idea of what

they value in their ultimate cruiser. After all, our owners spend twice as many hours on the water each year compared to

the average yacht owner. Some of that has to do with the comfort, fuel-efficiency and sense of community, but mostly it

comes down to quality of life. Our owners have it.

Nordic Tugs owners are invariably energetic, enthusiastic and passionate about life and sharing adventures on the sea.
