Shibui – quiet and tasteful – perfectly reflects the Japanese origins of her name. This Bob Perry designed Norseman 447 has been cared for by the same owners for 29 years. During that time she has cruised extensively, including a circumnavigation and multiple Pacific cruises, proving herself to be a safe and comfortable platform. Unlike many of her sisterships, she has not been unnecessarily overloaded but refreshingly shows as a “sailor’s boat”. Her owner’s experience shows in her outfitting, with consistent upgrades over time. An impressive 2017 cosmetic refit by Blackline Marine in Sidney, BC leaves her looking sharp with a proper deck paint job (all deck hardware removed), bottom stripped and barrier coated and refurbished spars. She features a Yanmar diesel, Phasor generator (new 2020), solar panels, beautiful radial cut spectra sails, Icom SSB, Monitor windvane and all the other necessary offshore gear. Truly a pleasure to be aboard, she is likely one of the nicest 447s out there and I expect she will make her next owners very happy.

Her hull below the waterline was stripped, faired and 3 coats of Interprotect 2000 barrier coat applied. Adding to the topsides paint job completed circa 2007, she received a full Awlgrip paint job on her deck with removal of all hardware. The Treadmaster nonskid was removed, the nonskid recesses faired, and Kiwigrip nonskid applied. Her spars were stripped to bare metal, primed, painted and rewired. All work was done with the greatest detail and the invoices reflect a cost of over $100,000 Canadian dollars. At her most recent haulout in April, 2020 her propeller was serviced, hull waxed and 4 gallons of Petitt Ultima 60 were applied. The hull is hand laid molded fiberglass with alternating mat and woven roving. The deck is hand laid fiberglass cored with end grain balsa. Hull and deck are mechanically fastened every 4″ with all through bolts for hull to deck joint accessible from below. Her underbody configuration features a fin keel and a skeg hung rudder. The ballast is lead, fully encapsulated in the keel with no bolts. All bulkheads are fiberglassed to hull and deck with tapered edges and foam compression pads against the hull. The overhead is made up of removable panels with access for wiring or backing plates.

Great open transom too - ideal for dinghy, marina stern boarding, swimming and safe mob retrieval. Sistership, to my knowledge, has the longest running blog, taking 18yrs to lap and as of last month still winning regattas while cruising in their golden years. Oh and now she is half the price of a 447 at $84,000.
