3. 40' Tugboat - Take five

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.
