Sweden Yachts C34

Sweden Yachts, årg. 1980, skrogmateriale Glasfiber-armeret plast, Diesel, hjemhavn Taivassalo (Finland), SY Avia for Sale – A Beloved Classic Ready for New Adventures
We’re putting our beloved SY Avia up for sale as a new project calls!

This Sweden Yachts C34 represents classic Scandinavian boatbuilding and late-70s sailing yacht design. It’s not the fastest upwind cruiser in the archipelago, but in heavy weather it truly shines – the mainsail and newly radial-cut furling genoa perform excellently, even when reefed.

The boat has been carefully maintained and extensively upgraded.
