Susanna built in Sweden in 1928 for 22 400 euros!

Friends! Today we have a truly special find — the wooden beauty Susanna, built in Sweden in 1928. Price – 22 400 euros!

📍 Location: Sweden

— Length: 12,9 m + bowsprit
— Beam: 4,5 m
— Draft: 1,6 m
— Displacement: 15 t
— Year built: 1928
— Hull: oak
— Engine: Cummins 4BT 3.9 Turbo, 135 hp

This ketch-schooner combines history, maritime character, and cozy liveaboard comfort.

To be honest, I’m not entirely sure of the exact model — if anyone knows, let me know in the comments.

The sails are in good condition, the rig has been modernized for easy single-handed handling. She sails effortlessly, responds well to the helm, and moves even in light wind.

Inside, there are up to 10 berths, including a separate aft cabin. A beautiful mahogany interior, full standing headroom, a wood stove, and an Eberspächer D4 diesel heater. A spacious galley makes life onboard comfortable.

Her first owner was an artist and designer — the man behind the first Volvo ÖV4 in 1927. After him, Susanna passed into the hands of counts and company directors, and in the 1980s she sailed the Atlantic off the Portuguese coast.

Equipment:

— Two plastic diesel tanks (150 L each)
— Holding tank: 80 L
— Freshwater tank: 250 L
— 5 batteries (4×80 Ah + 1×120 Ah)

— Refrigerator: 49 L
— Gas stove with oven
— VHF, plotter, depth sounder, log

The yacht underwent a full restoration around 2000 and has been regularly updated since. In recent years, she has served both as a home and a faithful cruising companion along the entire Swedish coastline.
