Description

Classic fast 16 m yacht in the style of a comfortable archipelago cruiser with numerous numerous innovations in recent years, including new engine, new sails, onboard electrics, electronics, etc.. This yacht has not been sailed from 2017 -2021 and has been in indoor storage during this time. In 2022, extensive trips were made to Anholt, among other places. She is being sold for reasons of age. The Swede 55 was designed in 1975 by Stockholm yacht designer Knud Reimers as a touring version of the classic archipelago cruiser. The archipelago cruiser has been appreciated for its speed, beauty and sailing pleasure since the beginning of the 20th century. Based on the elegance of the archetype, the aim was to create a family-friendly yacht with more comfort. The slightly wider Swede 55 offers more space and a headroom of 189 cm under the stretched cabin superstructure. The seating hollow is recessed between the superstructure and the aft cabin. The aft cabin offers a comfortable berth for 2 adults with a lying length of approx. 205 cm. The centre cockpit is as safe as in a comfortable motor sailer. In rough seas it is pleasant to have a few more metres of ship behind you. The Swede 55 goes through the water extremely easily. Thanks to the slim shape, the boat has excellent rough-water characteristics. Like a long-wheelbase car, the many metres between keel and rudder provide excellent directional stability. Above all, the Swede 55 is fast, which, in addition to the fun on the water, is interesting when cruising long distances. Several participations in transatlantic regattas by Swede 55 yachts with good placings also testify to the ocean-going capability.
