In Ferenc Máté's book THE WORLD'S BEST SAILBOATS, he writes that Vindö Yachts "have combined the strength and longevity of fibreglass hulls and cockpits ... with the beauty of magnificently crafted mahogany house and teak housetops and decks to create some of the prettiest yachts in the world today." "Svea" has been kept in very good order by her current owner, with many modern upgrades, whilst keeping the look and feel of her classic lines. Her hull form gives an easy motion and the yacht has excellent sea keeping abilities. Her high quality mahogany and teak interior, which is in particularly good order, is unmatched by modern boats.

"Svea" has been subject to a comprehensive re-fit and upgrade over the past two years including new electronics, new ‘stack-pack’ and sprayhood. "Svea" was built on the island of Orust on the west of Sweden in 1980. We bought her in 2004 and are selling her in order to buy a new boat to cruise the east coast of the USA. Her high quality teak and Mahogany interior makes living on board a pleasure.
