Starweather has good availability for the rest of the season, with open weeks from mid-August through late September and again from early October to the end of the month. She’s a capable, easy-handling Nordhavn 57 — active fin stabilizers, bow and stern thrusters, and a full electronics suite make a boat this size approachable, while three staterooms, Starlink, and full-size comforts make a week or more aboard easy to settle into. Charters are booked by the week.
See current openings [live schedule here] or inquire to plan your dates.
Some boats are built for the weekend. Starweather was built for the world. This Nordhavn 57 has been steadily upgraded and maintained to deliver serious long-distance cruising with comfort, safety, and style. Her 3,000 nautical mile range, active fin stabilizers, hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, and upgraded electronics make her an ideal choice for couples or small families looking to explore the Pacific Northwest.
Life aboard is easy with Starlink internet, a watermaker, full-size appliances, and multiple social zones including a covered flybridge, inviting salon, and spacious cockpit with an outdoor shower and grill. Below, three staterooms—including a forward VIP and twin-berth guest cabin—allow everyone their own space, while the walk-in engine room gives peace of mind to those at the helm.
Whether you’re dreaming of the San Juans, or up the Inside Passage to Southeast Alaska, Starweather is a capable, comfortable platform that inspires confidence at sea and relaxation at anchor.
Many other features, too numerous to mention here (see the Specs tab for more details) make this a great choice for your next PNW adventure. Contact us at info@nwexplorations.com to book your charter aboard Starweather.
