Initially designed in 1937 by the renowned Swedish designer Tore Holm, SVEA was not built due to the onset of World War II, and plans were lost for decades. Over 70 years later, the plans were rediscovered and SVEA was commissioned with the intent of participating in the 2017 America's Cup Superyacht Regatta and J-class Regatta in Bermuda. Retaining the heritage of her J-class lines, the original structure and sail plan was thoroughly updated incorporating many new features. To ensure maximum competitiveness, J-class rules were considered throughout the construction, with the management of the delicate weight and balance an essential aspect of the build and finishing process. 80 years after the original drawings were made, SVEA was launched as the longest J-class ever built and won her second-ever race during America's Cup J-class regatta. SVEA's lines and deck are kept spectacularly clean, thanks to the compact wheelhouse, sunken wheel and wonderfully low boom. Her unusually large steering wheel allows the helms-person to position themselves further outboard for a better view of the foresail telltales, a clear performance advantage. SVEA's deck layout optimises modern racing, whilst also being a great guest area whilst the yacht is cruising. SVEA has been meticulously designed with her racing capabilities in mind, however, her interiors are not compromised with a luxurious interior below deck designed by the renowned Pieter Beeldsnijder. SVEA boasts a semi-classic interior which nods to the history of the yacht while providing a contemporary look and feel. Cream panels and walnut veneers keep her bright down below and her main salon benefits from a large deck light, flooding the space with natural light. The galley can be opened up to the comfortable salon and dining area by the dropdown wall panel creating easy access to the galley while racing, and a relaxed breakfast bar and dining area while cruising. With an owner's suite, plus two en suite guest cabins SVEA can accommodate up to 6 guests plus 7 crew members. SVEA is one of the most outstanding yachts of modern times - an incredible fusion of 1937 design and 21st-century technology. Her current owner has spared no expense. SVEA comes with a complete wardrobe of racing sails and a delivery wardrobe, a carbon fibre mast and a 10m Humber RIB. SVEA is an exceptionally advanced and an unsurpassed sailing yacht, she arrives to market as the newly-crowned 2018 J-class champion.

🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [4/52] 🪢 This little life saver got to join us onboard when Marcus sold his old boat. There we had used it because we didn’t have an oven so at first we were a bit hesitant if we would need it or not in Linnea. But you can bet we are glad that we brought it! Sailing in the tropics, most people put off using the oven as it heats up the already hot boat. But using this Omnia instead, makes everything so much easier! It also means we don’t have to worry as much about the gas supply as it does not use nearly as much gas as the built in oven. Extra tip, if you want to use it both for cooking and baking, make sure you get two silicone inserts.. Otherwise your cakes might end up tasting like potatoes 🥔 Been there done that… Sponge cake: 3 eggs 2 dl sugar 100 g butter 1 dl milk 3 dl wheat flour 2 tsp baking soda 1 tbsp vanilla powder 1. Whisk sugar and eggs really fluffy. 2. Melt the butter. Pour the milk into the melted butter and then stir it into the egg/sugar mix. 3. Mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and then put them into the egg/sugar mix and stir gently until smooth. 4. Put it into the Omnia oven. Turn on the stove, we use the small burner on lowest heat and bake the cake for 50 min. 5. Let the cake rest for ten minutes before taking it out of the silicone form. This is a classic vanilla sponge cake. For extra flavour you could add things like chocolate or lemon. Ps, this is not sponsored, we just really like our oven!
