Gosh what a find. Sailing Magic Carpet had a Vindo 28 and I've always liked them since watching that channel. I love nice woodwork on a boat, I guess that's why I like Dory's, Vindo's, Baba's etc.Thank's guys as usual :)

That is precisely how I discovered the Vindo! And the moment this one popped on the market I knew we had to go take a look. She lived up to my expectations and then some! Thanks for your continued support!

I used to own a 1975 Vindo 40 and they are a beautiful, well-designed and built sailboat. I always thought mine was like a piece of fine furniture that could stand up to rough weather like a champ. The main issue with such a boat relates to rot of that beautiful exterior wood.

Damn! If I was forty years younger, I’d buy this boat. When I was a kid of 25, I bought a Catalina 22 new and sailed the Chesapeake. In my heart I thought Id buy a Catalina 30 and sail the Caribbean. However, life got busy and I spent most of my time on my career becoming a Judge in S.E. Florida. Now that I have the time and the means, my wife is not interested and I can’t do it anymore on my own. But I can dream.

Hi Jack! We really appreciate this feedback. Many thanks. She’s such a pretty boat! I first learned about the Vindo watching Magic Carpet (I mention them in the description), and I think theirs was a Vindo 32 - also a beauty! Thanks for watching!

This woman absolutely loves her! Maybe all your ladies need is a week at one of the all female sailing schools. Easy to learn to love to sailing with no men around 'helping' us. (so we can make fools of ourselves without a male audience). But then again my family have always been sailors, so sailing is in my blood.

Great boat ... obviously well kept. A very nice coastal cruiser for the price with a nice sail assortment. It's a shame that we seldom see any of Vindo's larger offerings on this side of the Atlantic like the 50, 65, or 90. Their sailboat data numbers are very impressive. I find it strange that it is always the 30 and 40 models that seem to be available on the American market -- i guess it speaks to their seaworthiness!!! There is a 45 for sale currently in Salem, Ma ... it might be interesting to do a follow up episode comparing the two -- different layout down below, wider beam, aft cabin, larger displacement, etc. Not sure how far the trip would be to get down and look at it though ... just a thought. Great episode!

Vindo built a nice boat and that is a good example indeed. A friend had one and it was a very nice boat. His was 34' LOA so likely the Vindo 45. Have you been out sailing yet? We have had two nice sails so far.

On a Deck step mast wouldn’t it be prone for mast decapitation in a big storm. I really don’t know that much about sailing. But there seems to be a lot of contradictions going on with this boat. On one hand you have full keel, very slow but Sea worthy. A very rounded haul capable of flipping a 360 in the very worst scenarios only to wonder, Oh Shit where did my mast go? Also such a low freshwater capacity. This boat doesn’t know who it is. I would’ve thought better of Swedish design than this. Were these guys high on Swedish meat balls at the time? But l got to say” you have to love the elegant wood work! Just over look the major details!

Serious sailors have covered a lot of blue water miles on Vindos, they were built to sail rugged Scandinavian waters, and handle beautifully in all conditions. She's one of this offshore (trans Atlantic) cruiser's dreamboats, if I were twenty years younger, she'd be very tempting.
