Specifications
The Nicholson 38, a classic sailing yacht from 1974, offers a fascinating combination of historical charm and functional sailing performance. This specific model, the Panta Rhei II, is one of the 134 units built by the renowned shipyard Halmatic, designed by Camper & Nicholson.
The hull of the Panta Rhei II is made of polyester, a material known for its durability and ease of maintenance. With a length of 11.50 meters and a width of 3.30 meters, the Nicholson 38 offers a spacious and comfortable experience on the water. The draft of 1.70 meters makes the ship suitable for various waters, from inland waters and lakes to open seas. The S-shaped hull contributes to the stability and seaworthiness of the yacht, making it a reliable choice for both leisure sailing and longer vacations. The accommodation of the Panta Rhei II is designed with comfort in mind. Inside, the ship offers a headroom of 1.85 meters, contributing to a pleasant living space. There are four fixed berths and the possibility to create six additional berths, making the ship suitable for larger groups.
The onboard amenities include a manual toilet, a shower, a dining area, a refrigerator, a stove, mattresses, an oven, and hot water. The hot air heating provides extra comfort during colder days on the water. The engine of the Panta Rhei II is a Mitsubishi S4Q2 inboard diesel engine with a power of 50 hp. This engine, installed in 1998, has 950 running hours and offers a cruising speed of 12 kilometers per hour. The fuel tank has a capacity of 175 liters, which is sufficient for longer trips without frequent refueling stops.
The electrical systems on board include a 12V and 220V voltage, with facilities such as a battery charger, alternator, inverter, and shore power connection. In terms of sailing, the Panta Rhei II is equipped with four sails, including storm sails and a mizzen staysail. The masts are made of aluminum, contributing to the strength and durability of the rigging.
The navigation equipment includes a compass and a VHF radio, essential tools for safe navigation at sea. Safety is an important aspect of the Panta Rhei II, with features such as a self-draining cockpit and an electric bilge pump. The exterior equipment includes a deck cover, cockpit tent, pulpit and pushpit seats, fenders and lines, and a guardrail, contributing to the safety and comfort of the crew.
The history of the Panta Rhei II is special, as the ship was donated by the first owner to the Royal Netherlands Sea Rescue Institution (KNRM) to be sold in support of sea rescue operations. The full proceeds from the auction benefit the KNRM. This gives the ship a unique background and an extra dimension to its value. The Panta Rhei II is currently located in Zuidland, where it has been on the hard since November 2023. This offers potential buyers the opportunity to thoroughly inspect the ship before it goes back into the water. With its rich history and solid construction, the Nicholson 38 remains an attractive choice for sailing enthusiasts looking for a classic yacht with character and potential.
