This Swede 55 was described as “sails past everything” when launched. The design by Knud Reimers is known for speed and balance. Handling is responsive, with all halyards led to the cockpit for safety and control.
The boat is fitted with a self-tacking jib and roller furling. Sail changes are quick, and the deck layout is practical for short-handed sailing. The deck was refitted with Treadmaster non-slip by a professional yard.
A Vetus diesel engine with 42 hp and 1,860 hours gives reliable motoring. The engine compartment is accessible for service. Shore power and strong batteries support longer stays onboard.
