It’s good to have a friend with a boat. And if you’re into playing live music, it’s even better if the boat comes with custom cabinetry for your guitar amp. It’s a feature on Nordhavn N96 New Journey, whose owner is a drummer.
“The dream is to cross the Pacific into the Marquesas and when we get there, we’ll play Rock and Roll by Led Zeppelin,” he says. The song is a percussion-heavy ripper that reminisces about walking in the moonlight.
Chasing the moon and sun is what New Journey is all about. “I could have gone with a sexier-looking coastal boat,” the owner says. “But I’m 62 now and I’ve done that whole thing for 40 years. I want to go back to French Polynesia; I don’t want to do the San Juans anymore.”
