The Najad 440 is a well-crafted, classic cruising yacht, designed with a focus on both aesthetics and practicality. The vessel features a graceful hull of white gelcoat, a moderately high freeboard for dry sailing, and a spacious teak deck that provides a safe, slip-resistant surface underfoot. Stainless steel fittings, wide side decks, and flush hatches add to its robust, high-quality appearance.
The centre cockpit is deep and sheltered, offering excellent protection with a fixed windscreen and comfortable, high coamings. The cockpit has spacious seating, a central steering wheel, and a folding teak table, perfect for relaxing on board or entertaining guests. At the aft, there is a large swim platform built into the transom, making it easy to get in and out of the water or board from a dinghy.
Inside, the saloon is bright and welcoming, with rich mahogany woodwork and plenty of daylight streaming through large portlights and overhead hatches. The main seating area is a U-shaped dinette with a matching settee, all surrounding a sturdy table that can double as a place for navigation. The galley, located near the companionway, is compact but offers everything needed for long trips: a gimballed stove, double sinks, refrigerator, oven, and ample storage.
SY Hellerwest offers a forward cabin with a large V-berth and lockers, as well as an aft master stateroom featuring a generous double berth and an en-suite bathroom with a separate shower. There is plenty of storage throughout, with well-crafted cabinetry and under-berth compartments. Both bathrooms are spacious, fitted with separate shower stalls and marine toilets, all finished with quality woodwork.
Materials throughout the boat are of high quality, including satin-finished mahogany or teak wood and brushed stainless steel hardware. The floorboards are solid wood. This attention to fit and finish is a hallmark of Scandinavian yacht building.
Large windows and multiple hatches make the interior feel open and airy during the day, while well-placed overhead and reading lights create a warm atmosphere at night.
The yacht is powered by a strong 90-horsepower Volvo Penta engine, providing reliable propulsion for docking and calm conditions. It is also equipped with a powerful Vetus bow thruster, enhancing manoeuvrability in tight spaces. Additional equipment includes a generator, wind vane self-steering system, radar, and chartplotters, which all contribute to safe and comfortable long-range cruising.
The sails are in excellent condition: the Genoa is only one year old, the mainsail is three years old, and the Cruising Chute, Spinnaker, and Staysail are all as new. These modern and well-maintained sails contribute to excellent sailing performance.
SY Hellerwest stands out for its combination of classic beauty, functional design, reliable power, and quality materials, making it an attractive and comfortable choice for long-term cruising.
Viewings of the boat can be arranged with at least 3 days' prior appointment. Boat showings are available every day during business hours except Sundays.
