2012 NORSEMAN 500C

This is a vessel that launch owners and ex-sail boaters can easily adjust to and sit back in some elegance and comfort. Manaaki is a 2012 Norseman 500 C that has provided many memorable days on the water to her current owners and is now ready to be sold and provide the same for you.

A fast trawler, semi displacement hull that is powered by twin Cummins QSC 480hp diesel engines giving you a cruise speed from 12-15 knots (economy of a trawler) and top speeds up to 23 knots, (speed of a cruiser.) This gives the best of both worlds especially for long range extended passage making at low speeds.

Along with her impressive powerhouse, Manaaki is equipped with an array of other features including Zeus POD drives, Onan generator, Raymarine electronics suite, zoned air conditioning, 12 and 24 volt circuits, automatic engine room extinguishing system and watermaker to name a few.

The open flybridge configuration provides an attractive space with great perspective for crew to join the captain when underway. With the tender being stowed above keeping the cockpit and hydraulic boarding platform clear at all times when entertaining near the saloon is the chosen option.

Berthing capacity is across three well sized cabins with two separate internal electric heads with showers as well as external cockpit shower. The hot water cylinder has been replaced start of 2025 running both as electric and heat exchange.

Manaaki currently sits in Westhaven and has options around her berth also available to the next owner. She presents as an attractive trawler whether on the water or moored in your favourite bay. Be sure to get in touch and organise a time to come and see her for yourself.
