Overview
The Norseman 400 is a Gary Grant design sold by Norseman Yachts from 1980. It should not be confused with a South African boat of the same name.

Buyers Notes
John Neal rates it 2 of 5: attractive and good sailing, holding its value, but maintenance-heavy, with rusty fuel tanks an expensive problem (see Known Issues).
