The Nordhavn 43 can be purchased with various options. So after you look at the standard equipment on a 43, you may be curious about the options we selected for Kosmos. Making our choices was a fun puzzle of balancing trade-offs of cost, complexity, and utility. This list is based off the April, 2005 options sheet, so this should not be taken as the latest greatest list from Nordhavn. While Nordhavn creates production boats, they are certainly willing to entertain various additions or subtractions to make their customers happy.<\/p>\n
