BESTEVAER 49 S/Y
49 Foot Aluminum Sailboat
An aluminium yacht designed for short-handed, long distance voyaging in cold climates, but equally at home in the tropics. The 49 S/Y is a bit shorter than its predecessor, the legendary Bestevaer II, and is known for its comfort, strength and excellent sailing properties. She is fast in strong breezes, but also able to maintain a good turn of speed in both light and moderate conditions, a result of her moderate displacement and large efficient sail area.
