Variety of custom Swede 55 parts

Sailing the last Fisksätra manufactured Swede 55 since 1980, I gained experience how to keep and repair the boat, how to improve and sensibly upgrade it. So I am offering Swede 55 parts and accessories like:

You are welcome to order the following accessories, upgrades, and improvements upon request:

  • new head- and backstay, runners, lower, intermediate and upper shrouds for Swede 55

  • two speed self tailing headsail winches suiting pulling loads and fitting to the Swede 55 winch console
  • smooth operating, efficient and lightweight mainsheet arrangement (avoiding costly and heavy extra winches)
  • new runner arrangement consisting of low stretch and high working load Dyneema, endless rope and two speed self tailing winches to be handled by the helmsman in a simple open keelboat (Dragon) style
  • strong mainsail out haul 1:15 instead of standard 1:5 purchase (internal boom arrangement, partly Dyneema ropes, partly stainless-steel cables)
  • emergency tiller, spare steering cables and accessories
  • Swede 55 mainsail logo in original size, shape, and colour scheme
  • 39 inch (100 cm) Ø steering wheel, polished stainless steel, fitting to the original Swedish steering hardware (Fisksätra Varv, Wargia)
