The Sweden Yachts 45 is a beautifully built yacht that strikes a perfect balance between performance and comfort. First introduced in 1999, it is one of the most highly regarded models from the renowned Sweden Yachts yard. Celebrated for its combination of excellent sailing performance, comfort and ease of handling, it is a true bluewater cruiser that also excels as a comfortable coastal yacht. The hull and rig are designed to deliver both performance and safe handling, even with a small crew. The cockpit layout gives the helmsman a secure working environment in challenging conditions, while the clean, uncluttered deck makes her easy to sail.
Below deck, the mahogany interior is thoughtfully planned, offering three cabins with six fixed berths, two heads with showers, an L-shaped galley, navigation station, and a spacious saloon with a U-shaped sofa. The layout provides ample room for extended stays on board.
This particular example, LEONA, has had unusually careful ownership. The first owner kept her for about 20 years, sailing only 3–4 weeks each summer before storing her indoors for the remaining ten months. From around 2015 until autumn 2020, she was not sailed at all but remained in indoor storage.
The current owner took over in autumn 2020 and has since sailed five seasons on the Swedish east coast in freshwater. During this time, LEONA has received a number of upgrades and has been continuously maintained. Thanks to spending so much of her life under cover, she is in exceptionally fine condition for her age.
Sweden Yachts 45, LEONA is a very well-preserved, solid and safe yacht – an excellent choice for anyone seeking a high-quality yacht for both coastal cruising and longer offshore passages.
