The Norseman 400, designed by the prolific naval architect Robert Perry, represents a refined era of performance cruising from the mid-1980s. Built by the renowned Ta Shing Yacht Building shipyard in Taiwan—a facility famed for producing high-quality vessels such as the Mason and Tashiba lines—the 400 was conceived as a slightly more compact, more manageable alternative to its legendary larger sibling, the Norseman 447. While the 447 gained fame for its sheer offshore power, the Norseman 400 offers a more nimble profile, balancing a moderate-displacement hull with a sophisticated underbody that reflects Perry’s "performance cruiser" philosophy. The vessel features a distinctive combination of a fine entry for punching through chop and a flatter exit to encourage speed under power or sail, making it a favorite for couples seeking a high-quality blue-water platform without the logistical demands of a 45-plus-foot yacht.
