Its not a big boat ? I think its about the same like my sea cruiser . Its 10.70meter long Wide about 3.40meter. I'm 1.86 high and i do not Touch the roof . So i can walk in de boat . Reason i ask is the camera u use. Its a fish eye lens so it looks bigger.
We rented a Nordic 32' in Juneau with another couple about 30 years ago. Ten days cruise through SE Alaska; Tracy Arm to Glacier Bay and back to Juneau...Eagle, Bears, and Whales, Oh My! Absolutely the best vacation we've ever had! The boat (Little Vixen) was perfect for four people and the John Deere main was solid and thrifty.
I'd love to live on this.... it's perfect in size... imagine how lovely this would look with modern units fitted and given a paint job on outside....👍👍👍
Yeah I think about selling everrything and moving onto a Nordic tug 32. The 26 is a possibility since it's just me and my little dog but want enough space for my ebike so if I anchor out can row ashore and use the ebike to get to a store.
I love nordics, Nordic and rangers are really the only boats i'd trust in bad weather on the lakes around here. i'd NEVER want to get caught out on the lake in a big storm but for running to port these things can take the tossing around you see. Find it funny people take to the lakes thinking of them as lakes... but when a storm rolls in its as bad as the open ocean.

Hey I worked for Nordic! It's about 20 miles from me. Was there in 2019 prepandemic. I can attest every inch of that boat was made by guys/girls that know what they're doin! Beautiful boats.
My wife wished I didnt see your video cause it has got me thinking about a trip down to see my brother and family in Clearwater and ask him to keep an eye open for something like your find!!! Yea, Im gonna do it!!
I've always been impressed by Nordic Tug but they are easily some of the most expensive boats on the market for their size and type. They are in the rarified company of Kadey-Krogen and Nordhaven trawlers. They are EXTREMELY well built and tough motor cruisers but they come at a premium cost.
These are very popular here in Washington State. Very seaworthy and dry perfect for our weather. Being able to boat during fall winter and spring makes the Nordic the perfect choice.
Looking forward to be back to swfl in October, looking around for some similar "stuff" and enjoy friends and family. Don't forget the Lauderdale Boat Show in November. Nice tour on a nice little "big" boat
Very cool little craft! She's been well cared for....Seems -much- bigger than 32 ft!!! Great layout of salon/gallery > roomy!!! "...if not for the courage of the fearless crew....." You know the rest....:)
I looked into one of these back in the 1980s. A couple guys I worked with in the Alaska oil field would spend their two weeks off every month down in the NW US on their boats. Met a lady life changes…..
S.S? You don't see too many Steam Screw vessels these days. 🤪 No wonder the professor couldn't fix it. He didn't have a proper forge to repair the boilers. I spent my childhood in the 80s and early 90s in Florida. I watched a lot of "Gilligan's Island" 🏝 which was filmed in Florida. If I had this boat, there's no way I wouldn't be offering three hour tours to friends and family every chance I got.
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman I want one of those boats bad. Hoping in the next year to be in position to start looking to buy vs daydreaming on boat trader 😄
At least from a Detailing point of view, I’ve detailed both and the Nordic tug gel coat is horrible. Extremely chalky and the window frame paint on the Nordic has worn off years ago on this specific boat. I also have been detailing an American tug. Who’s owner is quite meticulous, but the boat is mint and just being on them both the American tug seems much nicer. I will be doing a walk-through on that American tug with the owner in an upcoming video. .
I was gonna say!😮 “no one’s gonna mention gilligans island!?” I love that show! I’m only 18 at the current year, but I was raised with good tastes and now I’ve legitimately binged all three seasons of gilligans island a crazy 7 times over and over again😂 yeahhhh…I’m Kind of a crazed fanatic😂 AND IM PROUD OF IT!🤟🏻👍🏻😁
Mileage? Punta Gorda hot as hell in summer. Fortunately diesel that thing would be idling all night long in the long summer here unless one is attached to shore power. Protected waters I wouldn't wanna be very far offshore in this its not a sail. yeah you'd need to be wealthy to own and live aboard this though. Way too rich for my blood.
Please join me here on my other channel, Harbor Pilot Yacht Tours, for more boat walk-through videos!

I had a Nordic tug once. Best Sweden trip ever.
Sir, I know EXACTLY what you mean. ;-)
ha ha
Swedish vacations always have happy endings.
What was his name? Hans or Olaf?
I had a inflatible dingy, took 100 strokes to come ashore.
I'd love to live on this.... it's perfect in size... imagine how lovely this would look with modern units fitted and given a paint job on outside....👍👍👍
Thanks for watching
I love these boats. Been looking at them for years. Made in the USA
'Made in USA' Is it though ? Washington is a blue state. Is that REALLY the USA ?
I absolutely love the tug trawler style of boats. "Dock trophy". 🤣 Damn the head is a lot bigger than I thought it would be.😲
Sad but true most boats are dock trophies
Dock Trophy you say? Back in the day we lovingly called them "Harbor Queens".
ill use that

Great Lakes? If so, yeah I've sailed those many times.
@@frankconley6321 Yeah, they are larger then some countries. and with wave heights upto 30 feet in storms might as well be inland sea's.

Me too let me know if she shuts you down on a good deal. A little tug or a 32-34 Grand Banks or monk will work.
Beautiful little boat!

cummins 6bt 12valve, mechanical pump. very reliable motors.
Thanks for the info
Only a Florida boy would wonder why there's a seat in a stateroom 😅 some people wear shoes. Awesome presentation!
So what’s that bench called or intended for?
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman He answered you- You sit down on the bench to put on or take off your shoes.
Mr Rodgers would love that feature. @@missychan63

What are 'shoes'?
That looks like a fun little tug boat.

It seems very clean, especially the bilge. I am wondering what the bilge would look like when in the water.
Thats a really nice boat great video thanks

Don't take a three hour tour on that boat whatever you do! 😂
Dibs on Mary Anne

This was a cool little boat and the name
yes it is

I was heading to South America to live in the jungle then I too met a lady and life changed lol
Did you go to the Jungle with her or because of her??? 😉🤣
Kidding, nice lil boat. Thanks for showing us
we run away, only to run into something New!!!
😭
I was once a happy-go-lucky guy, then I met a lady...
I LOVE THIS BOAT
I’m in that city! Great review looking to get a boat soon! PNW!!! 🎉
That is a very tough tug boat, bro. And I wish I owned such a beautiful boat especially named ss minnow
I've been washing it for a decade through two owners. probably spent more time on it than them lol
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman By Irish Sea Law, you now own a small part of the minnow.👍🏻
sounds good im gonna have to check that out@@simpleman2
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman lol
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman¹¹¹i
She's a little beast!
Good looking boat!
The ss minnow went for a 3 hour cruise.. Protected waters for sure but north atlantic?! 😲
Really cool! Great share
Gilligan's Island. Lol. Just wish you could walk around.
How noisy are these underway? That would be my main concern for longer voyages.
Your awesome dude be safe out there
his boat is my pipedream!
I love those boats! I want one. My wife is ok with it. So one day…one day.
I am 100% sure I built the pool cage next door, studied it closely in envy.
Would be nice to get more info on the power plant!
Sorry I didn’t have the information when I did the video check out my new channel Harbor pilot yacht tour before we go much more detail on each boat.
the minnow? do you do three hour tours?

Gilligan's Island was filmed on Moloa’a Beach in Hawaii and the CBS Studio Center back lot.
Thank you.
Wish I had it
Me too
They make great boats here in the PNW!!
I'm watching from Philippines, your boat is awesome, they you live in your boat?
Thanks for watching. No that’s not my boat but yes, you could definitely live on it.
That is so nice😀😎✨
thanks for watching Chris
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman
Of course! ☺️✨
Would love to own one……..but I don’t have the cash. We live 40 miles north of Burlington, Wa. Lots of Nordic tugs around here
Cool boat and powered buy one of the best engines can't beat a 6bt
It is
i built a boat 2 years ago and a huge branch broke it and have been looking at these mini tugs I might just start building again 🙂
Hermoso barco
I think this boat is for sale now. Not many listings of Nordics on a lift. Is this in Punta Gorda?
I see that now. Thanks for the heads up.
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman I want one of those boats bad. Hoping in the next year to be in position to start looking to buy vs daydreaming on boat trader 😄
You'd never get me on this boat for a three-hour tour.
A 3 hour tour,...
A 3 hour tour,...
I like this ❤
I’ve heard that they don’t handle well in rough weather.
Great boats. Talk to Jeff at Seattle Yachts.
Awesome
Love it
Funny the real SS Minnow resides in the Pacific Northwest just north of Nanaimo BC.
Does this have Air or a Generator?
yes
😂 mucho espacio 😊 bueno
Just for curiosity, how much is this wonderful vessel?
This one is not currently listed but if it comes available I will do a second video. Thanks for watching
They ain't cheap I can tell you that. And they don't come onto the market very often in my experience.
Usually they're around $145,000 to $185,000 currently, depending on condition.
From Russia, is Very good 🦾👍
Wow thanks for watching.
The bottom looks r ally clean
Full beam cabin...just makes too much sense. nice
Beautiful lil Tug..... Wonder why they didn't build the cockpit flust to the Transom ?? Be Well n Keep America Great 👍👍....
true it could use a few more feet back there.
…The weather started getting rough, The tiny ship was tossed….
Great song
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman As a somewhat superstitious person, I was a bit surprised at the vessel name, tbh. 😬…
Ginger or Mary Ann?
Mary Anne@@Socks-and-Dave
If not for the courage of the fearless crew...
Haha, tug life. Love that.
That place look like GTA Vice city 🌆🤯
It's actually a trawler
In my opinion it needs a complete overhaul and refit. It’s kinda cute but it needs upgraded gages and autopilot.
What’s the asking price????
That one isn’t for sale
Obviously watched Gilligan's Island.
Cummings 380B ????
I believe so.
I'm assuming that this is called a Keel because it keeps the boat from keeling over?
I think its just the opposite.
Nice boat review Is this boat for sale?
No the owner just let me show it off
Who couldn't live aboard a Nordic Tug - but $$$$$$.
Im interested to know why you think American tugs are nicer than Nordics.
At least from a Detailing point of view, I’ve detailed both and the Nordic tug gel coat is horrible. Extremely chalky and the window frame paint on the Nordic has worn off years ago on this specific boat. I also have been detailing an American tug. Who’s owner is quite meticulous, but the boat is mint and just being on them both the American tug seems much nicer. I will be doing a walk-through on that American tug with the owner in an upcoming video. .
Nice boat although it needs a ton of TLC and deep cleaning. It appears to also need a technology upgrade. But it is a nice fixer upper.
I think they make them in Taiwan ? Or maybe China now . Originally in USA I thought.
Used to be in Washington. not sure now though. A lot of trawlers are built in Taiwan. I have an American tug 43 walkthrough coming soon.
Nope they are still made in Burlington Washington. That accounts for a lot of the premium in price on them.
It needs a big ass, monster A/C unit.
How much $$$ do these go for?
Depends on the year. 100-200k
Gilligans tug😮
At least they all survived
I was gonna say!😮 “no one’s gonna mention gilligans island!?” I love that show!

ACold Weather boat ,PERIOD for sure . Not for Sun worshippors at All or fishing .
Right most trawlers just have a fishing boat look but not actually set up to fish.

It's a bed.. it's a bed @ 9:15😮
TOTALMENTE CIERTO
Price
This ones not for sale
If I owned a Tug boat it would have a silly name like Tug Life
Bezos uses one of these as a dingy for his "boat".
They literally don’t even have a dock big enough for his yacht
Actually his Tender is 65 foot long.
The area looks like PG isles to me i just have to hit the lottery and i will be there if thats PG Islss you are in 😎
You got it.
This a house ,in a form of "boat" ......,,🍋
If people live in tents on the street you can live in a tug boat. No Need to waist time watching this
That kind of life will be over soon..
Why? The green agenda?
@@TK-cl1jm I think so..
@jordanbey870 Ugh. I hope you’re wrong, for at least the next 20 years.
