Broker comments
Attention grabbing thoroughbred designed for true sailing performance. The attention to detail behind the scenes is what sets this design apart - the finish is excellent, as you would expect from such a well known builder. The specification of the deck gear is extremely high. There is definitely a feeling this boat could take you anywhere. On top of it all, there is an aura of exclusiveness you would only expect from a Sweden Yachts, a Scandinavian builder well known for their exacting approach. You simply don't get this from modern production yachts!
The yard themselves describe the boat thus, "The cockpit has been designed for maximum efficiency and comfort, whether under sail or in harbour. The helm and winches are positioned for fast, exact operation with minimum effort... This is probably the best-sailing 42 footer ever built".
