1985 Sweden Yachts Aft Cockpit

The renowned author Ferenc Mate included the Sweden Yachts 36 in Volume II of "The Worlds Best Sailboats". This inclusion speaks to all aspects of the boat; Design, Build Quality, and Actual Performance.

The boat was refit to sail the 2006 Bermuda race and is ready to fulfill your Performance Cruising goals.

The aft cabin is huge for a boat this size. The storage below deck is better than most boats a few feet longer. She sleeps seven, two in the forward stateroom, two the main salon, and three in the aft stateroom.

If you are looking for a "Performance Cruiser" or very comfortable "Ocean Racer/ Cruiser" you should take the time to check out this boat.

Accomodations
" Tycho Brahe" is unusually large below decks for a 36-foot boat. She can sleep seven in three cabins. Starting Forward is a double berth to starboard with a large sail storage area beneath. Over head is a large Lewmar hatch for ventilation while at anchor or to facilitate the movement of sails to the foredeck.
Moving aft to port is a large double door locker with sliding drawers and a hanging locker.
To starboard is a roomy head compartment with shower and dedicated sump. There is a small opening overhead deck hatch and solar powered vent.
The main salon features settees on port and starboard with excellent storage behind the settees. There is a drop leaf table, which will seat six with wine and glass storage in the table.
The galley is "L" shaped and very well designed for use in a seaway.
The nav station is on port at base of the companionway for excellent communication to the helm.
The aft cabin has berths for 3. The aft cabin is the largest I have seen in a 36ft boat and includes provisions for storage beneath the port berth.
