Nordhavn is a trade name of a line of ocean-going trawler-styled motor yachts designed and produced by Pacific Asian Enterprises, Inc. (PAE).
Pacific Asian Enterprises was incorporated in 1978 in California.[citation needed] PAE designs, builds and markets offshore passagemaking vessels ranging from 41 to 120 feet (12 to 37 m) in length. The vessels are constructed under the supervision in Taiwan, China and Turkey.[3]
One 40-foot (12 m) 'stock' Nordhavn was the smallest production powered vessel[4] to circumnavigate the world, from November 3, 2001 - to June 30, 2002. It covered more than 24,000 miles (39,000 km) over some 170 days at sea, starting and ending its circumnavigation at Dana Point, California.[5][6]
