REGINA Regina 43 Zu verkaufen (1999) in Beaulieu, Vereinigtes Königreich

For anyone on the hunt for a deck saloon pilot house yacht with classic looks and Swedish build quality, your quest is over. Let me introduce BIMBLE, the Regina 43. Regina of Vindö was a Swedish builder of high-quality, semi-custom sailing yachts, founded in 1972 on the island of Orust, the home of Swedish boatbuilding. They are best known for their deck saloon yachts, which combine traditional Scandinavian craftsmanship with modern innovation and long-distance cruising capabilities. Regina yachts feature thoughtful, practical designs, including integrated indoor and outdoor steering, ensuring excellent comfort and a rewarding sailing experience in all conditions. Although BIMBLE dates from 1998, her overall condition - both inside and out—belies her age. Over the past four years she has benefitted from a meticulous programme of updating and replacement, with virtually every system refurbished or replaced. Cosmetically, the yacht gleams both inside and out.
