The all-new and thoroughly modern Nordic Tug 49 is a much-anticipated addition to the Nordic Tugs® line of classic, tug-style cruising yachts. While the 49 is a Nordic Tug through-and-through, discerning boaters will notice many subtle enhancements that elevate this model's beauty and functionality to a whole new level.

The 49 was designed by naval architect Howard Apollonio of Apollonio Naval Architecture and will retain the character of the previous models, but the new hull design will benefit from advancements in design and technology. And with a shallower draft of 3'11", the 49 is the ideal "go anywhere" boat - perfect for cruising both inland and coastal waters.

The Nordic Tug 49 will feature a very spacious interior designed for optimal livability and incorporates the work of the highly-regarded marine interior designer Judy Bell-Davis of the Bell Design Group. The two-cabin boat has a full-beam master stateroom amidships, beneath the pilothouse, and an equally well-appointed guest stateroom forward.

The first Europpean boat will be available in Sring 2009.
