Wooden Ships Comments on this 22sqm Skargardskryssa Regatta yacht
This 22 sqm Skargardskryssa was built in Stockholm in 1935 as a regatta race yacht and has a well documented history detailing her many victories over the years. Restored by the present owners in Switzerland over an eight month period, the hull was stripped to bare wood and repainted and every fitting on the boat was removed, repaired and refitted. The hull was found to be in very sound condition, needing little repair work.
This is a very extreme yacht, designed for flat water racing in the Baltic and exceptionally fast. She is now in stunning condition and ready to sail. She comes with a custom built 4 wheel trailer for transporting her, which has hydraulic brakes so can be towed behind a normal 4WD vehicle.
