I’ve always had some reservations about the wording “The Traditional Cruising Yachts” mostly because the “Traditional” side of life didn’t always involve cruising for pleasure much less in a “Yacht” - but I’ve left it alone and will continue to do so until I find something better to convey the message that was most likely coined by the earlier marketing people at Exe Fibercraft.

I like this photo simply because the efforts and time it took to create this figurehead that had little or nothing to do with the rest of the work on this ship but it looks like whoever did this took the same pride in building this and the representative nature of where and why it was added. Our 16, 20 and 30 foot boats today don’t often have such extreme measures taken but then we have a quite different mission to accomplish. Click on the photo above and then use that information to learn something more... it’s good reading to put things into perspective and to re-align our concerns about the coming boating season and what we probably need to worry about!

If you are a current or past owner of a nordica sailboat, or just a bit curious about what this line of boats looks like, then this web site is for you.  It’s not going to have anything about Nautors, Nauticats, Nordics, Nordships, Nor’Seas, Norsemens or Nordfarer’s, so don’t be surprised. What you will find is some useful information and specifications about the models that were manufactured in Canada by a company called Exe Fibercraft in the mid 70’s to the early 80’s and sold under the name of Nordica along with some very interesting pictures of boats that the owners would really like for you to see

Almost all sailboat owners have “projects” that will add to or enhance the original manufacturers end results. It’s always helpful to see what types of issues others have had and how they might have resolved them. The Nordicas that are still sailing today have been doing so without “factory help” for a long time so if you were instrumental in finding ways to keep them afloat and in good condition, then we’d appreciate hearing from you.

  We hope you enjoy the site and welcome your feedback.
