Broker's Comments

Sweden Yachts were originally set up in 1976 and commissioned to build the Americas Cup entry 'Sverige' however, they continued to produce high quality, fast cruising yachts and still do today. Initially marketed as the Comfort 34, approximately 300 Sweden 34s were built until 1986 and they remain extremely popular as their seakeeping abilities sets them aside from other family sized cruising yachts.

On deck she feels safe and solid, lots of teak gives her a luxurious look and moving around is easy. Below her layout is traditional and seamanlike with comfort and practicality combined as Scandinavian yachts are famous for.

This is a well cared for example, benefitting from an experienced owner who has upgraded and maintained her and she presents nicely. She's tidy on deck and clean and fresh below, in commission and well equipped for family or shorthanded cruising
