40′ Tugboat – Take Five – Downloadable Boat Building Plans
“The 40′ Tugboat – Take five was delivered to us in Rotterdam, Holland. We sailed the boat home to Norway crossing the North Sea. I must really approve this design. Morten did a distinctive job designing this boat. It handles extremely well at sea and it sails like a dream. My biggest compliment for the design.”
Magne Steinset, Norway
This 40′ Tugboat is a full displacement yacht suitable for cruising and living. It is spacious with a master cabin, saloon and wheelhouse.
This tugboat has a 200 HP engine giving it a cruising speed of 8 knots and a top speed of around 10 knots. A bow thruster gives full maneuverability when entering ports.
The accommodation in the master cabin is luxurious with lots of space, plenty of closets and nice wide beds. There’s even a bathroom with a shower. There’s also room for a laundry with both washing machine and dryer. The aft cabin is somewhat cozier than the master cabin but still offers plenty of room for 1-2 people.
The saloon has a nice large L-settee and the pantry offers the perfect setting for dining or just relaxing with a cup of tea or coffee. The saloon roof can be enclosed with a rail.
The wheelhouse is fully equipped with everything necessary for controlling the yacht.
