Nordhavn N86

A true example of global passagemaking pedigree, 'Salvatore II' represents the best of Nordhavn's renowned craftsmanship, long-range capability, and rugged elegance. Purpose-built for extended cruising in comfort and safety, this impressive 86-foot expedition motor yacht has recently benefited from a major refit that refreshed her inside and out, ensuring she presents in exceptional condition and is ready to embark on her next adventure.

Stepping aboard 'Salvatore II', the teak-laid swim platform immediately sets the tone for the vessel's quality and attention to detail. Stainless-steel railings frame the space and feature eight rod holders, with an additional ten neatly positioned along the transom for those who enjoy serious fishing pursuits. Teak-laid steps on both port and starboard sides lead up to the expansive cockpit.

The teak extends seamlessly throughout the cockpit, where an aft fixed settee surrounds a handsome timber dining table, complemented by director's chairs, ideal for alfresco meals or sunset drinks. A removable shade awning offers protection from the sun when needed. To port, a built-in BBQ and sink make outdoor entertaining effortless, while a convenient day head is positioned off the startbaord side deck, ideally placed for quick ease of use after swimming, so there's no need to head indoors. Wide teak-laid side decks on both sides lead forward, allowing safe and easy movement around the vessel.

Through the sliding glass doors, the saloon greets you with a sense of space and warmth. Large panoramic windows flood the interior with natural light, enhancing the beautiful joinery and elegant furnishings. A large chaise-style sofa sits to port with additional armchairs opposite, all centred around a refined coffee table. Immediately to starboard is a large Samsung TV, perfect for movie nights or entertainment at anchor.

Forward of the saloon, the formal dining area comfortably seats eight guests. Opposite, the bar area is the perfect social hub, fitted with shelving for spirits and glassware, and a generous array of refrigeration including two Vintec wine fridges and two Dometic beverage fridges. This area also offers direct side deck access, allowing guests to move easily between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Forward of the dining area, the galley aboard 'Salvatore II' is a chef's dream. A breakfast bar with three stools invites casual dining or conversation, while the large, well-equipped galley features premium appliances including an upright Sub-Zero fridge/freezer with built-in ice maker, Sub-Zero freezer with another built-in ice maker, Miele induction cooktop, dual Miele ovens, and a Miele dishwasher. Thoughtfully laid out with ample bench and storage space, this area perfectly balances practicality with social connection to the rest of the main deck.

The guest accommodations on 'Salvatore II' are thoughtfully arranged for comfort and privacy. To port of the galley, a staircase leads down to a versatile guest cabin, featuring a 3/4 double bed, Samsung TV, and vessel monitoring system, equally suitable as a captain's cabin if required. This cabin also includes a private ensuite with a separate shower.

To starboard of the galley, a second staircase descends to the main guest area. Midway down, a spacious VIP suite offers a queen bed, generous storage, and a private ensuite. Continuing to the lower accommodation deck, two additional guest cabins are located, each configurable as either two single beds or one double, with their own private ensuites. All guest cabins are equipped with Samsung TVs, providing seamless entertainment throughout.

Forward of these cabins lies a dedicated utility room, complete with a separate washer and dryer, sink, ample storage, and hanging space, a highly practical and functional addition for extended voyages.

From the galley, an internal staircase leads up to her commanding pilothouse. Here, twin Stidd helm chairs face a professionally equipped navigation console boasting supersized Furuno MFD displays and a comprehensive Furuno electronics suite. Port and starboard pilothouse doors provide immediate deck access for docking or fresh air, while aft of the helm, an inviting L-shaped seating area with a table creates a comfortable observation or social zone. 'Salvatore II' is equipped with ABT TRAC Zero Speed Fin Stabilisers and American bow and stern thrusters, ensuring smooth handling and stability under way or at anchor.

Directly aft of the pilothouse, 'Salvatore II's' impressive owner's stateroom offers a private sanctuary. The ensuite, positioned to portside just as you enter, features dual sinks and a large separate shower. The full-beam stateroom centres around a king-size island bed, surrounded by finely crafted timberwork and abundant natural light. A drop-down Samsung TV is seamlessly integrated for comfortable in-cabin entertainment.

Perhaps most special of all is the private terrace extending aft, complete with a removable shade awning and two sun lounges. It's an ideal place for morning coffee, quiet reading, or simply taking in panoramic views of the sea.

Forward of the pilothouse, two wing control stations allow precise manoeuvring while maintaining visibility down either side of the yacht. A comfortable bench seat provides a scenic spot to take in the views, and steps lead down to the teak-laid foredeck. Here, a MarQuipt davit handles a tender with ease, and the robust anchoring system featuring dual Plough anchors and Maxwell windlasses stands ready for secure mooring in any anchorage.

Returning inside, an internal staircase from the pilothouse ascends to the flybridge. Twin Stidd helm chairs with footrests sit forward, complemented by a Furuno navigation suite.

Three-sided clears provide protection while maintaining open views, and centralised bench seats with a hi/lo table easily convert to a daybed. The teak-laid deck adds a touch of luxury underfoot, while a sink and additional rod holders make this space perfect for relaxation, entertaining, or light sportfishing.

From the cockpit, access to the crew quarters is via a door to port near the saloon sliding door. The well-designed space features a compact kitchenette with a bar fridge, Sharp microwave, and sink. Accommodation includes two cabins, one with a double berth and a Hisense TV and the second cabin with a single berth, providing comfort and privacy for crew during long passages. A head with a shower ensures the crew have their own dedicated bathroom facilities.

Aft of the crew quarters lies the spacious lazarette, which can also be accessed via a hatch through the cockpit sole for ease of use. This area provides generous storage for water toys, fenders, lines, and other cruising essentials, keeping the decks clear and organised. Both the lazarette and engine room doors are stainless steel, reflecting 'Salvatore II's' uncompromising build quality.

Beyond the lazarette sits the heart of the yacht, the meticulously maintained engine room, housing twin MTU Series 60 engines at 600hp each, twin Onan 40kw generators along with Parker Village Marine and Stella Marine water makers. The space is clean, well-lit, and designed for accessibility, complete with a workbench above the generators and room to move, reflecting Nordhavn's thoughtful engineering.

'Salvatore II' stands as a remarkable long-range motor yacht that perfectly blends expedition capability with refined luxury. With her 2025 refit, generous accommodation layout, and robust engineering, she offers true go-anywhere confidence without compromise on comfort or style. She is a vessel that invites you to explore the world's oceans, in elegance, safety, and total peace of mind.
