The latest news out of the Nor-Tech camp is big, as in 50-plus-feet big in the form of the new stylish 527...

Can't wait to see this boat. I have always liked a 50 Nor-tech.

I think that move to the upper echelon of size and price in monohulls ( not forgetting Nor-Techs Quality) on the Fast endurance cruisers is a wise move. People with money will always have that extra to spend.
Europeans have always preferred bigger boats with diesels & surface drives and that leads to 50'+ endurance cruisers easily and those tackle the sea like no other. ( Yeah Yeah Apache47's are there but they ain't no match for Termolli63's or Buzzi's 55s...trust me)
Gotta say I have liked Nor-Techs Vees a lot so I can only cheer for them to go bigger and tackle the European builders. If someone can do it it's Nor(vegian)-Tech and Magnum

A Wise move, Go For it.

Congrats to Mark and Eileen, their last 50 was absolutely awesome. 50 w/triple 1000's and rode like a Cadillac.

Will it be much longer overal than a 5000v, which I believe has a LOA of close to 52ft? Can't wait to see it regardless.

Glad to hear about all these new models coming from some of the top performance boat companys in the world. Hats off to all of them,for keeping there company's afloat through some tough times. Congrats Nor tech and customers
