Ylva 40 - Classic performance yacht with Scandinavian character
The Ylva 40 is an elegant, sporty sailing yacht with an impressive history. Developed in the 1970s by Danish designer Steen Kjølhede, she combines classic design with remarkable seaworthiness and performance. Her slim hull shape, deep long keel and balanced rig ensure excellent upwind performance and confident behavior in all weather conditions - both on regatta courses and on long-distance cruises.
With a length of around 12.20 meters and a width of just 2.29 meters, the Ylva 40 has a particularly slim and elegant profile. The yacht is known for its easy handling - even with a small crew or solo - supported by a well thought-out deck layout and a self-tacking jib. The interior is both functional and comfortable, ideal for longer trips with two to four people.
The Ylva 40 is not only a real eye-catcher in the harbor, but also a yacht with soul. Her regatta successes, such as multiple victories in the "Sjælland Rundt", testify to her performance DNA. At the same time, her solid GRP construction, long keel and classic lines provide a robust and reliable basis for ambitious sailors.
This yacht is aimed at sailors who are looking for more than a modern production boat - namely character, style and genuine sailing tradition. Whether for regattas, weekend cruises or extended trips: The Ylva 40 is a yacht with history, heart and soul.
