Description

Sy SAGA is a vintage classic sailing yacht and offers great possibilities. A powerful sailing yacht, easily handled with hydraulic rig and winches, powerful engine and hydraulic retractable bow thruster. Her” Sparkman and Stephens” designed hull delivers good sailing performance. Her protected helm station is superb for both warm and cold water sailing. She has one of the best layouts for charter or family use on the market. 4 Generous large double cabins with en-suite heads, huge saloon, galley, crew mess and - accommodation forward. She has been thoughtfully improved and updated during this ownership to deliver a ready-to-sail yacht to its new owner.

We love sy SAGA .We choose to buy the yacht in 2015 for her extraordinary volume inside and outside on deck, and her super sailing abilities. We were very impressed by her build quality which could not be repeated today. She is also simple and straight forward to handle. Our sailing program included the Mediterranean, Greenland West coast and Norwegian West coast .
