Description
2014 Sweden Yachts 42 For Sale. A rare opportunity to own the very last of the 42's ever built. A special yacht for the boat owner who won't accept compromise. Sweden Yachts have a well-deserved reputation for producing high quality, fast cruising craft. In Sweden Yachts own words the 42 is "...probably the best-sailing 42 footer ever built". Rare to the market, particularly with this young vintage and meticulously upgraded and maintained. Optimisten is a turn key boat ready for the season.
