Najad 570 Buyer's Guide
The Najad 570 on the brokerage market is a semicustom Judel/Vrolijk & Co. center-cockpit sloop built by Najad Yachts from 2007, a 57-foot world cruiser whose owner-configurable layouts and modern vacuum-infused construction make her a credible bluewater buy. Shopping one means weighing ex-charter history against the standard of equipment most brokers now list.
Layouts on the Used Market
Charter four-cabin arrangements are the more common on the used market, but both private and charter layouts appear; ex-charter examples are common. Because the 570 is semicustom, owners had leeway in stateroom arrangement, so a used buyer should confirm whether the interior matches private cruising needs or a charter footprint with additional cabins.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
For a boat this size, energy and propulsion systems matter most. A watermaker, heating, lithium batteries, and a bow thruster are commonly fitted, supporting independent living and close-quarters control. Often-seen upgrades include an inverter, freezer, and a furling main that simplify passage-making; a code zero or gennaker frequently complements the standard fractional rig for light-air speed. Navigation is commonly covered by a chartplotter, radar, and autopilot, while teak decks are usual finds. A sail-handling cluster of electric winches and a full suite of Andersen winches reduces crew load, and a belowdecks windlass with twin bow rollers is typical ground-tackle spec.
What to Inspect
The vacuum-infused hull and deck are laid up in vinylester and multi-axial E-glass over a Divinycell core, with a couple of layers of epoxy primer below the waterline anchor; check that primer and laminate integrity remain sound. The deck is bonded and bolted to the hull with reinforced fiberglass at winch loads, so survey the winch foundations and hull-to-deck joint. The keel blade is cast-iron with a lead bulb and the spade rudder hangs on a solid stainless post—inspect both for impact or corrosion. A large walk-in engine room is accessed via companionway stairs and galley panels, affording service reach to the Volvo Penta D4-180.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
Typical markets for the 570 are Portugal, Italy, and the Bahamas. A short checklist for viewing: confirm layout suits intended use given common ex-charter four-cabin versions; verify thruster, watermaker, and lithium bank function; survey teak deck and vinylester hull below the waterline; test the Andersen winches under load.
