Sweden 370 Buyer's Guide
The Sweden Yachts 370 is a limited-production 37-foot sloop from Sweden Yachts, designed by Peter Norlin and Jens Östmann and built between 1993 and 1998 with only 36 hulls completed. For a buyer on the brokerage market, she represents a small-series Scandinavian cruiser with a fractional rig, lead-ballasted fin or wing keel, and a three-cabin mahogany interior. The known construction details set the agenda for inspection.
Layouts on the Used Market
Used examples will show the standard cruising layout with sleeping space for six across three separate cabins plus a galley and head in mahogany finish, given the 36-boat production run. The deep-fin version requires just under seven feet of water at load while the shoaler wing keel draws between five feet seven and five feet eleven — a meaningful difference for Mediterranean or shallow-Baltic berths, so confirm the keel type before negotiating.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Used 370s commonly carry heating, teak decks, radar, autopilot, chartplotter, bow thruster, electric winches, and hot water, which together describe a comfortably equipped northern-European cruiser. Often-seen additions include solar, inverter, gennaker, furling main, bimini, cockpit shower, AIS, life raft, and short-handed setups that reduce crew workload. A buyer should weigh the bow thruster and electric winches as consequences for dockage and solo handling, while heating and teak decks signal a boat pitched at extended-season Baltic use.
What to Inspect
The 370's hull is a balsa-cored sandwich from the toe rail to below the waterline, with solid laminate only at the keel, mast foot, and hull-halve joint, so tap the deck and coachroof for soft spots that reveal core saturation when checking a specific hull. The deck-to-hull joint is an aluminum toe rail through-bolted over a sealing compound, and you should check the bedding for weeping or staining that marks failed sealant. The keel is lead on both options, but inspect the solid-laminate hull-to-keel interface for prior grounding damage, since the fin draws over seven feet loaded.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats turn up in Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. A short viewing checklist:
- Confirm fin or wing keel and measure draft against your berths.
- Tap deck and hull sides for balsa-core softness.
- Inspect toe-rail bedding for leaks at the hull joint.
- Check keel-hull laminate for grounding scars.
- Verify heating and teak decks suit your season.
