2005 Najad 380

Designed as the successor to the highly popular Najad 373, the Najad 380 builds on that successful foundation and introduces a more modern style to the well-established centre-cockpit cruising yacht concept. An agile performer, the newer 380 features a fractional sloop rig with a fully battened, slab reefing mainsail. Retaining the traditional, high-quality finish below decks, it offers two double cabins, a spacious head, a linear galley, and a traditional saloon. With all lines led aft to the secure centre cockpit, the design is ideally suited for short-handed cruising in comfort. A lightly used example of the NAJAD 380 ELVA has been with her current owners since 2014. Lightly used she boasts an impressive inventory, including highlights such as: Original off-white gelcoat Traditional teak laid decks Yanmar 4JH4E, 54hp, marine diesel engine 3-blade bronze folding propellor Ambassador rope cutter Maxpower series 80 bow thruster Mastervolt I/O battery charger Raymarine Smart Series autopilot with S3 course computer, ST6002 control head and linear drive unit Raymarine E80 chartplotter / Radar (x2) with 2kw, pole mounted radar scanner Raymarine ST60 Navigation instruments Raymarine AIS-250 AIS receiver Icom IC-M601 DSC VHF with Commandmic SeaMe active radar reflector SMEV gas cooker, 3 burner, grill and oven Isotherm fridge Eberspacher Airtronic D4 diesel-fired heating system Full standing rigging replacement in 2022 Andersen stainless steel winches Cruising chute Storm Jib Lofrans electric windlass with secondary control station in cockpit Seago 4 person, offshore cannister raft.
