History
Najad was founded in 1967 by Berndt Arvidsson and Thorwald Karlsson, in Kungsviken, Orust, Sweden. The first model, a 34-foot boat designed by Olle Enderlein, was built in 1971. It went from the at the time traditional long keel to a more natural end of the propeller shaft, while the engine was given a more appropriate location. Najadvarvet went bankrupt in 2011, after which the bankruptcy estate was bought by Nord West Yachts. Najad AB, the company's name after 2014, is now owned by Orust Quality Yachts AB, a subsidiary of Hexiron AB in Lund, which also owns Arcona Yachts.
