Used Sweden 50 Sailboats for Sale

The Sweden Yachts 50 stands as a definitive example of the "Scandinavian Performance Cruiser" ethos, a vessel that balanced the rugged requirements of North Sea sailing with an uncompromising level of luxury finish. Designed by the celebrated duo of Peter Norlin and Jens Östman, the 50 was the flagship of the yard’s production line for much of the late 1980s and 1990s. It was engineered to offer a high degree of "shorthanded" capability, allowing a couple to manage a 50-foot hull through the use of sophisticated sail-handling systems that were, at the time of its debut, considered cutting-edge. According to the Sweden Yachts Group, the model was built to Lloyd’s specifications, ensuring a hull integrity that has allowed these vessels to maintain their value and structural reputation decades after leaving the yard in Stenungsund.
