Regina 49

Built by Swedish yard Regina Af Vindö Yachts starting in 2000, this Carl Beyer-designed 49-footer represents thoughtful Scandinavian cruising yacht philosophy with performance potential. The substantial 44,092-pound displacement combined with a moderate comfort ratio of 42.67 positions this boat as a capable offshore cruiser that won't sacrifice comfort for speed. The masthead sloop rig delivers a healthy sail area of 1,248 square feet, while the fin keel and spade rudder configuration provides responsive handling characteristics. With a capsize screening formula of 1.66, the Regina 49 falls within accepted parameters for offshore sailing, making it suitable for serious coastal cruising and ocean passages. The GRP construction with balsa core sandwich offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio while providing good insulation properties. At nearly 43 feet on the waterline, the hull achieves a theoretical maximum speed of 8.78 knots under sail. The generous beam of 14.63 feet translates to spacious accommodations below, while the 6.56-foot draft suggests good windward ability. A substantial 100-horsepower engine provides reliable auxiliary power for challenging conditions or tight marina maneuvering. This design appeals to sailors seeking a well-built European cruiser capable of extended voyaging.
