THE SCANDI CONCEPT

Sailboat model with deckhouse

Deckhouse

The Scandi Concept involves sailboats with deckhouse, which gives a spectacular panoramic view from the salon and the navigation seat. This gives sailing new dimensions and the 360 view makes cold and wet night shifts outside in the cockpit nothing but a memory. It is warm, quiet and dry inside the deckhouse and navigation seat, easy to navigate and communicate at the same time with the person sitting in the cockpit. This way you can easily follow from the inside what is happening both on deck and around the surroundings.

Design

The boats were developed from idea to finished product by Scandi Yachts in collaboration with naval architect Ulf Rögeberg at the helm and the local designer Tor Hinders. Rögeberg himself is an experienced and skilled sailor from Norway, known for drawing fast hulls with well-functioned deck arrangements, efficient rigs and sailing plan.

The basic idea in planning the Scandi Concept was to develop a pleasant and practical sailboat to live in under extended trips at sea. In the deckhouse one can sit indoors protected from weather and wind yet with a full view of everything that happens outside.

MODELS

Scandi 42

The building of Scandi 42, little sister to Scandi 52, was done during the summer 2020. Scandi 42 was launched for the public on Uiva floating boat show in Helsinki 13-16.8.2020

The idea of this boat is that it should be as functional as Scandi 52 but in a smaller format. The deckhouse is standard in this concept. It is designed to be sailed by a small crew.
